⇤7: All variables should be categorised to at least one category under Category:Dimension of the description. --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)
Contents
Scope
Question
⇤1: Variable scope does not have sub-attributes, so the use of subtitles 'Question' and 'Boundaries' is discouraged. However, the scope can be defined using these subtitles, so it is not wrong. --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)
What is body weight of Finnish children aged 0-24 months
⇤2: In population variables, it must be clear whether it is about the population mean or a random individual. See Clairvoyant test --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)
Boundaries
Finnish children at year 2007
⇤3: The time dimension should indeed be defined. However, I encourage to use variables like 'Current body weight of a random 0-2-year-old Finnish child'. This way, the variable itself remains useful in new assessments; of course, the data used to find a result gradually becomes out-of-date, but it is only data. See Clairvoyant test. --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)

Excel sheet --6: Instead of an URL, a 'media:' link can be used to files in the wiki. --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)
⇤4: For data, the original source (study, publication) should be mentioned if possible. In addition, it looks like if the Excel sheet and the website are two independent sources of data, but apparently this is not the case. --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)
Causality
Source data
⇤5: Data is not a variable and cannot therefore be causally related to a variable. If no upstream variables have been defined, the 'Causality' sub-attribute should contain simply 'None defined'. --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)
