Guidelines for using this page

Documenting the import

• Guidelines on how to import a dataset into Wikidata are available at Wikidata:Data Import Guide.
• Please include notes on all steps of the process.
• Once a dataset has been imported into Wikidata please edit the page to change the progress status from in progress to complete.
• It is strongly recommended to use Visual Editor when making changes to this page, particularly for editing any of the tables.

Creating a Wikidata item for the dataset

• Please create a Wikidata item for the dataset, this will allow us to improve the coverage of datasets on Wikidata and understand what datasets are available on that topic and which of them have been added to Wikidata.
• If you are working with very large dataset you can break it into smaller Mix n' Match catalogues, but only create one Wikidata item.
• Link the dataset Wikidata item to this page using Wikidata Dataset Imports URL (P5195)

Getting help

• If your dataset import runs into issues please edit the page to change the progress status from in progress to help needed.
• You can ask for help on Wikidata:Project chat.

Dataset description

Greenhouse gas emissions from point sources. Presumably doing the whole of this would be a big task so perhaps it could be trialled for the power sector (subsector electricity generation) by importing the 2021 carbon footprints of the rest of the 8 coal-fired power stations in Turkey I need for https://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Türkiye%27deki_kömür_yakıtlı_enerji_santralleri_listesi - as you can see in the “Karbon ayak izi/tarihi” column I have done a couple manually.

The next steps might be to do the whole power sector and get a bot running annually at first then monthly or weekly. If that was successful perhaps it could be expanded to the whole dataset. I am not sure how the Climate Trace IDs could best be matched to the Wikidata IDs.

Additional information

Not intending to do any of this myself. Perhaps some keen student would like it as a project. A long time ago I tried to get an undergrad interested via Datumizer at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:WikiProject_Climate_Change#Research_topic There seems to be an API under development at https://dev.climatetrace.org/ which also has a link to the terms of service which says most data is CC BY 4.0
