If you are typing up written observations or field notes, the NY Times Wirecutter team thinks the [Dictation tool in MS Word](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dictate-your-documents-in-word-3876e05f-3fcc-418f-b8ab-db7ce0d11d3c) is the best way transcribe your written notes. It requires an internaet connection to use, but [according to their review](https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-dictation-software/) "it handles medical terms and less-common words correctly more than most competing tools. It supports 34 languages, includes commands for punctuation, emoji, and other commonly used special characters, and allows you to format and navigate text with spoken commands."

 ## Metadata templates
 
 I have created metadata templates based on information from ICSPR (for social sciences) and Michener *et al.* 1997 (for biophysical sciences) that can be downloaded and edited; you can add more fields or delete any that are not relevant. Note that Table 1 in Michener *et al.* is much more comprehensive and provides additional guidance on how to make sure the metadata are useful. The templates are available in `.txt`, `.Rmd`, and `.qmd` format).

 # Transcription & Translation {#sec-transcription}
 
+::: {.callout-important}
+## Warning 
+
+Prior to using commercial transcription or translation services you should have them approved by [UF's Integrated Risk Managment Team](https://it.ufl.edu/security/audiences/faculty--staff/irm/), especially if you are working with 'Sensitive' or 'Restricted' data. Even if working with public data, you may wish to verify how the company is storing and using your files (i.e., if they are using them to train their models).
