TASK DESCRIPTION
We discussed about quantity precision today and here's a way forward:
- DataValue needs to support undefined precision
- Remove "guessing" of precision from parser
- Change formatters to always show the precision when defined
- Note: this will cause that +-0 is shown where it is defined as precision
- Guess the precision where needed (e.g. for unit conversion, indexing and
RDF export)
- Change the guessing algorithm to guess precision of +-0.5
- Open question: how to handle numbers with no decimals? e.g. 2300 could
have +-0.5 or +-50
- Create bot that removes precision that matches the previous guessing
algorithm
- Open question: should precision +-0 be removed from properties that
represent counts? Or should properties for counts get an own datatype?
Some of the above points do have existing tickets already. @Daniel
@thiemowmde @janzerebecki can you double-check the list and link the tickets?
