Curator Approved Artworks #22

Closed jonathangat closed 7 months ago

jonathangat commented 4 years ago

Hi there, Just want to double check - what is the relevant column for curator approved artworks? Is it the column "Cataloged"? (values Y and N). Could you please publish a clear documentation for this dataset that includes full explanations on each column and an indexed set of values?

Many thanks!

You are correct, Cataloged is the column to denote curator approved artworks. The works that are marked Y for this column have their information verified by the curatorial team.

Here's a list - ones that are more self explanatory I didn't detail but can elaborate if there's further detail needed

Artists ConstituentID - unique identifier for the artist DisplayName ArtistBio Nationality Gender BeginDate - birth date EndDate - date of artist's death, 0 if they are still living Wiki QID - unique identifier for the artist on wikidata (see https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Identifiers) ULAN - union list of artist names (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_List_of_Artist_Names)
