Managing Data Quality
WeRelate provides a few tools to help contributors find questionable information and/or duplicates so that they can improve the quality of WeRelate data.
These tools include:
- A Data Quality Issues list that can be reviewed across the entire site or filtered to focus on pages of interest to the contributor.
- Automated "questionable information" messages appearing on Person and Family pages. These messages are the same as the Error and Anomaly messages on the Data Quality Issues list.
- A Person page displays messages specific to the Person page (e.g., events out of order) and the person's relationship to his/her parents (e.g. born after mother's death, born before parents' marriage).
- A Family page displays messages specific to the Family page (e.g., invalid date) and the involvement of the husband and wife (e.g., married after death of husband). It also displays messages for each child's relationship to their parents and the parents' marriage (e.g., born before mother was 4, born before parents' marriage).
- A Duplicate families report to identify potential duplicate families to either merge or mark as not being a duplicate. This list is primarily used by volunteers who have signed up for the Duplicate pages patrol, and are comfortable with completing merges.
