Check marks for verified data #32

Description

@olizilla

Idea from @michellew21 - what if we add a check mark of similar next to dpi system info that has been verified by the public entity that is responsible for it.

Prior art

Similar to check marks on social media e.g. bluesky users: https://bsky.app/profile/jay.bsky.team/post/3luq4rt744s2u

Why might we do this

  • To demonstrate that we appreciate it when folks come to us with data, and to encourage others to do the same.

Why might we not do this

  • it could create the impression that data that hasn't been confirmed is less reliable.

Other options

  • We could have a variety of flags to denote what the source of the data was: public website, interview, etc

Open Questions

  • Who or what qualifies as being able to verify data for a given DPI

Implementation sketch

For the simple case of true/false boolean flag of "has been verified/no verified" we could add a column to that data with true|false as the values. The website template would be updated to show the verification status as a symbol on the DPI info card.

Work estimate: 1 day to design, build, test, deploy.
