-Here we present a preregistration template for ecological models in ecology, conservation and related fields. This template is based on the EcoConsPreReg: A Guide to Adaptive Preregistration for Model-Based Research in Ecology and Conservation (v1.0.2) by Gould *et al.* (2024)[^readme-1].

+This repository provides the Quarto template extension for preregistering ecological modelling studies[^readme-1]. The template has been developped for use within an *Adaptive Preregistration* approach[^readme-2], however can be used with standard approaches to preregistration. For non-trivial modelling studies, especially where model parameter and structure is in any way data-contingent, we recommend following the Adaptive Preregistration procedure, which is set out at <https://egouldo.github.io/EcoConsPreReg/>[^readme-3].
 
-For non-trivial modelling studies, especially where model parameter and structure is in any way data-contingent, we recommend taking an *Adaptive Preregistration* approach (insert cross-ref to preprint). However, this template may be used with any mode of preregistration.

 `EcoConsModPreReg` documents default to using the [Methods in Ecology and Evolution](https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/hub/journal/2041210x/author-guidelines "Author Guidelines") journal citation style. This can be overridden by adding your own `.csl` file to the document directory, and updating the quarto document yaml metadata to point to the new .csl file, see the [quarto citations authoring guide](https://quarto.org/docs/authoring/citations.html) for details.
