Do I ever hyphenate adverbs when used with "based"? [duplicate]
I've seen it used both ways, but I'm wondering what is the proper way to punctuate phrases with adverbs and words like "based".
example would be: academically-based instruction vs. academically based instruction
newly-identified disease vs. newly identified disease
Thank you.
According to the New York Times: "In general, assume you can go without a hyphen unless a modifying phrase or expression would truly be confusing or hard to read without it.... A hyphen is never necessary in compound modifiers with an adverb ending in -ly."

Style guides might vary, but this NYT advice matches what I've been taught and has passed muster with copy editors of academic-journal articles and books I've coauthored.
