Data Issues - reporting issues with data #67

Closed rufuspollock closed 10 years ago

rufuspollock commented 11 years ago

Summary: no good way to record and feed back on data "issues" (bad data). Reporting and notifying re issues with data would improve data quality.

Original thoughts and writeup at e.g.: http://okfnlabs.org/blog/2012/07/10/dataissues.html (based on much earlier discussions by @pudo, @rgrp and others ...)

Current status

Suggest do something really simple e.g.: https://github.com/datasets/issues

Idea: we don't need to built something let's just use an existing incredibly simple bug tracker and (ab)use it.

We did a post here http://okfnlabs.org/blog/2013/11/06/tracking-data-issues.html

FIXED. With that post plus https://github.com/okfn/ckanext-issues i'm going to mark this as fixed for the present. (No doubt something more elaborate could be done but can re-open if we feel strong).
