We report on the completed public open review of the second edition of our handbook “Diskriminierungssensible Metadatenpraxis: Ein Handbuch zur ethischen Auszeichnung historischer Quellen und Forschungsdaten” and compare it to the first edition’s closed peer review. Emphasis on review governance, quality assurance, respectful-review guidelines, community feedback integration, versioning, and alignment with FAIR/CARE.
