Metadata quality analysis

OLAC metadata records are scored for metadata quality on a 10-point scale explained in OLAC Metadata Metrics. The score for the above record (along with comments on changes that could improve the score) is as follows:

Component + - Comments
Title   1   0 
Date   1   0 
Agent   1   0 
About   1   0 
Depth   0   1  For the full score, add at least 6 more elements in addition to the ones counted explicitly in other components of the score.
Content Language   0   1  Add a dc:language element with an ISO 639-3 code to identify the language in which the resource is written or spoken.
Subject Language   1   0 
OLAC Type   0   1  Add a dc:type element that uses the OLAC linguistic-type encoding scheme to identify the type of the resource from a linguistic point of view.
DCMI Type   0   1  Add a dc:type element that uses the DCMIType encoding scheme to identify the generic type of the resource.
Precision   0.67   0.33  For the full score, make use of at least one more encoding scheme in addition to the ones counted explicitly in other components of the score. For instance,
  • olac:role on dc:creator or dc:contributor
  • use dcterms:W3CDTF on dc:date (or its refinements)
Quality score  5.67
