Re: Off the Top of my Head Example Data Usage Best Practices...

Good.  One addition.  Lets include Corroboration of Sources - how many
other Open Data Sources did you use to corroborate the data (with links)
you are using.

Brainstormed list of Data Usage Best Practices

I have really appreciated the discussions we've been having on the BP
document. I realize that while the scope of the BP document is still being
debated, I wanted to propose a "very rough draft" list of data usage best
practices.  I introduce this only as a means to illustrate what I think
about when I think about data on the web best practices.

WARNING WARNING WARNING

Before sharing the list I must warn you that I have not validated this list
against the current use case requirements.  Again I only introduce this
list only to spark conversation and for us to come up collectively with
ideas about what data usage might be.

WARNING WARNING WARNING

Here is the list:



1.     1) Properly Citing Data Source when Conveying Results


2.    2)  Exception Handling on the Web


3.    3)   Tracking Usage History with Provenance


4.     4)  Metadata and community vocabulary usage:


            a.       Leveraging JSON, JSON-LD, RDF


            b.      5 star criteria evaluation


5.     5)  Use of Validators for:


            a.       Metadata


            b.      Data Syntax


            c.       Web transactions


6.      6)  Advertising Usage


            a.       Reporting Problems


            b.      Rating Data from Usage Experience


            c.       Describing how data was used.


7.     7)  Search and Discovery Best Practices


            a.       Use of catalogs


            b.      Use of search engines
