Dataset format

[edit]

The dataset should be stored at Wikimedia commons, in the Data namespace, as a tabular data (.tab) file. Currently, the file format should be JSON, representing a three column table, where the first column is the three-letter ISO country code, the second is the year and the third is the value. In the future, CSV-files may be possible.

Steps:

  • Download a .csv file, for example from https://ourworldindata.org
  • Trim to three columns in a spreadsheet program
  • Upload it at https://www.csvjson.com/csv2json . Select "parse numbers".
  • Copy the json output and paste it into Notepad. Find and replace { with [, and "Country:" with nothing
  • Paste this data below the heading data, at for example [:commons:Data:Child Mortality.tab]

Be aware of some minor bugs.
