Angela,
Certainly consistency is the key. You might want a dummy person in your
file called Consistency for keeping examples of what you decide to do.
As an unlinked person they do no harm to your data and if you make them
Invisible they won't appear when you export a file unless you override
that Privacy setting.
One of the best resources for learning to use Legacy is Geoff
Rasmussen's Legacy Unlocked book available currently only as a PDF. It
was based on the Watch Geoff Live webinars.
Other great resources are the Webinars specifically on Legacy see
http://familytreewebinars.com/legacy_videos.php
To see the Watch Geoff Live ones you need a subscription but many of the
others are free.
I don't think anything does what you are asking in any systematic way.
You'll find discussions of particular data entry issues including the
pros and cons of various options in the archives of this mailing list
and on the Legacy User Group Facebook page.

I’m new to legacy and the software seems to have many ways to record
the same type of information which is great for those that like
options. I want to make sure I record the same types of data the same
way each time for consistency, plus I got a little confused when
trying to add new sources for data that is cited. Is there a
particular book or resource that explains the ins and out of legacy
and the pros and cons of different ways to record things?
