Hello community,
is there a way, any statistical approach, that you are aware of that let's
say, allows one to have an idea of how complete a record is, or what are
the actions you take in order to have an idea of the quality of a record,
and eventually a database?
Thank you in advance
Hi,
I thought a lot about this question in the past, and my answer is:
yes, you can apply statistical formulas. But you should know well each
field of your record: what kind of information could they contain,
whether you could set rules about that which you can apply for the
individual records.
and practical reusability of
records by end users.
Best, James

Here in .nz the national library runs a local aggregation service

i felt i was missing something, since i could not find some general, most
used approach, and perhaps some code on github that implements these
