correct attributions without years #3548

Open lucasrodes opened 6 days ago

lucasrodes commented 6 days ago

As per our documentation, the attribution to the data provider should always specify the year of publication of the data (except for very rare occasions).

Some datasets (and indicators) ' metadata lacks the year. We should fix these.

"UNICEF; World Health Organization; World Bank"

We discussed this kind of issue in the past. Maybe we could consider doing something along the lines of https://github.com/owid/etl/issues/2220 Not necessarily to ensure all guidelines are fulfilled, but at least some of them that could be easy to spot programmatically.

Mojmir proposed that this could be a separate linter, e.g. make check (but for metadata instead of code), instead of being part of ETL create_datasets (which could add execution time and other issues). Maybe OWIDBOT could print a summary of such issues.
