I have found it most helpful to use one event per source. If I have 2
sources that support a single event (i.e. birthdate) then I have to
attach 2 sources to the event. I have to enter 2 transcripts of the data
in the Event Notes. When I go back to that event, there is no way for me
to determine which source goes to which transcript.

As the transcript is part of the Source, I include it in the Source Detail, so there is no question of not knowing which Source it goes with.

I do sometimes *also* (not instead) include the transcript in Event Notes. One example of when I'd do this is when the Source was a newspaper article, perhaps an Obituary or Funeral Report. In many cases I will only summarise the transcript in the Event Notes; an example of this is with a Will.
