A topic I've been involved in recently regards statistics for gun
violence in the US. The government publishes a big report every year,
but it takes them most of the year to collect the information from
all
of the local police agencies and compile the results. Several English
Wikipedia articles use this information, and it would be awesome if
the tables in the articles could be generated automatically from data
in Wikidata. It seems like ideally I would have some code I would run
whenever they release the new report that would automatically import
all of the data into Wikidata and add the appropriate references. I
suppose the information would go in the item for each city. Say for
the Atlanta item, there would be a statement for murders and the
value
would be a number and the qualifier for these statements would just
be
"2011" or whatever. Then I would want to be able to have a template
that automatically makes a table to show the 5 most recent years
somewhere in the Atlanta article for example.
That's great. Now we should also provide with each statiscal generated
information an explanation of how it was interpreted. Numbers aren't as
objective as one may believe, so we should take care to explain
methodologies we use.
kind regards,

Subject: Re: [Wikidata-l] Expiration date for data
This has also been aired in other discussions. Outdated entries can
both be something that is only valid within a set timeframe, but can
also be dependent on something else. One special case is when an
external source do not support a specific statement anymore.
