− | == Cross-Archive Metadata ==
| |
− |
| |
− | This section is dedicated to the discussion of metadata that would apply for all the paleoclimate archives. For discussion on a specific archive, see the archive working group.
| |
− |
| |
− | === How this section is organized ===
| |
− |
| |
− | The section is structured around polls to gather community votes on whether a particular metadata property should be considered essential, required, or desired metadata (for a definition of these terms, see [[Paleoclimate_Data_Standards | this page]]).
| |
− | The polling is divided around two "types" of datasets: [[#New Datasets | New Datasets]] and [[#Legacy Datasets | Legacy Datasets]].
| |
− |
| |
− | The subsections are organized around the categories available on the wiki.
| |
− |
| |
− | Click on the links to see the current definition of the term. If you disagree on the definition, please use the Discussion page on the term.
| |
− |
| |
− | If you think a metadata property is missing, [[Quick_Guide_to_Editing_Wiki_Pages | add a poll]] directly in the appropriate section (don't forget to add the poll for both new and legacy datasets!)
| |
− |
| |
− | '''If the page freezes and you're unable to vote, refresh the page!'''
| |
− |
| |
− | Just a few questions to get you started. These concern both legacy and new datasets:
| |
− |

| |

| |
− | <poll>
| |
− | What type of datasets should be considered "legacy"
| |
− | Prior to Nov 7 2016
| |
− | Pre-internet
| |
− | Not contributed by author of original study
| |
− | Other (comment below)

− | * Simon Goring: "I would think that legacy data would be any data contributed that doesn't meet up with "new" standards." [https://twitter.com/sjGoring/status/795723135639113730 Twitter link]
| |
− | * Kaustubh Thirumalai: "In the current stage of LinkedEarth - pre-digitization IMO. e.g. "Legacy Seismic" = data on tapes" [https://twitter.com/holy_kau/status/795756493190680576 Twitter link]
