- Information about the dataset used for the preliminary figure, such as year, collision system, collision energy, centrality if applicable, needs to be displayed.
- Other key information, such as the kinematic cuts, legend, etc, should be added as well.
- Legend should not overlap with data points. Keep legend organized and in one place if possible.
