"traditional" vs. "progressive" views

I take issue with the framing of two conceptions of data literacy being "traditional" and "more progressive". It's unclear what "progressive" means in this context, and the framing comes close to taking a position on the subject. - Paul Hope (talk) 00:51, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

self citation

I was concerned with a self citation (random statistic and link to a website) by dataequality and removed it. It didn't flow with the article. svetaohio (talk) 23:13, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested source / edits

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. Your request did not provide specific directions for the text's emplacement. Additionally, your request did not comprise a verbatim description of the proposed text to be added. COI edit requests must include complete and specific descriptions of where the text is to be placed, and these must be submitted in verbatim form. Please see the reply section below for additional information about your request.

We've recently published an open access article on "data infrastructure literacy" in Big Data & Society which might be useful as a source for this page. The article can be found here (under a CC-BY license): https://doi.org/10.1177/2053951718786316

Here is the full reference that could be added to the reference section:

Gray, Jonathan; Gerlitz, Carolin; Bounegru, Liliana (July 10, 2018). "Data infrastructure literacy". Big Data & Society. 5 (2): 1–13. doi:10.1177/2053951718786316.

In particular the article might serve as a source for:

Reviewing different ways of conceptualising data literacy.
Suggesting how data literacy initiatives might look beyond technical and statistical capacities for using data, in order "to account for, intervene around and participate in the wider socio-technical infrastructures through which data is created, stored and analysed" (p. 1)

Unable to review

Of the four required pieces of information for an edit request to be reviewed, your request is missing two of them: B and D, shown below:

Example edit request: "Please change A to B using C placed at D."
A	B	C	D
A verbatim description of the old text coming out of the article (if any).	A verbatim description of the new text going into the article (if any).	A reference which verifies the requested change.	The exact location in the article where B and C are to be placed.

B: The request does not specify the verbatim text which should be added to the article. Instead, the request offers a suggestion for how parts of that text might appear but does not otherwise propose a complete sentence.
D: The request does not specify where in the current article the claim statement and reference should be placed.

Kindly open a new edit request at your earliest convenience when the missing pieces of information are ready to be submitted.
