 ### 3.4 Usage guidance
-This section should provide high-level instructions for use of this protocol. Where possible, we recommend including the following:
-1. **Contact details** for anyone looking to discuss re-use of the project. Note this information will be publicly available if your protocol is made public. Only include contact details where explicit permission has been granted.
-2. **How to cite** this entry, including any references you would like to be cited in addition to this entry (see [Issuing a doi and licence](#issuing-a-doi-and-license) below).
-3. **Your terms for reuse** (see [Issuing a doi and licence](#issuing-a-doi-and-license) below), including any specific terms around authorship before others reuse this protocol. For example, "We request that future users of this protocol contact the authors of this entry to discuss collaboration and authorship agreements relating to reuse." This may be particularly relevant for experimental protocols or sequences.

 ### Open Access Actions
 If you choose to make a protocol public ("open access") ensure you have added a license note to your entry, reserved a doi for the protocol using zenodo, and added the doi to the usage guidance (see [Issuing a doi and licence](#issuing-a-doi-and-license) below).
