If H atoms have been refined, then complete geometry for them MUST be in the submitted CIF, and a summary of the results (e.g. min. and max. C-H distances) should be given in the _publ_section_exptl_refinement section. If H atoms have not been refined, geometry is not required, but its inclusion in the complete CIF lists (unflagged for publication) is welcomed.
