Summary

  • datapackage.json key typo: "descriptions""description"; value was also truncated — replaced with a complete, accurate description.
  • Missing descriptions: Added description to both resources and all 8 fields across both resources, derived from World Bank indicator definitions and actual data values.
  • License corrected: Changed from ODC-PDDL-1.0 (public domain) to CC-BY-4.0 to match the World Bank's upstream CC BY 4.0 terms. Declaring a CC BY-sourced dataset as PDDL strips the attribution requirement.
  • HTTP → HTTPS: Updated all http:// URLs in sources and licenses to their canonical HTTPS forms.
  • Sources differentiated: Both source entries previously shared the name/title "The World Bank". Now distinct: "World Bank: GDP Deflator" and "World Bank: Consumer Prices".
  • Stale last_updated field removed ("2016-03-04").
  • README: Corrected swapped CPI/GDP labels on source URL links; removed stale "1973 to 2014" year-range claim; fixed JSX className attribute on badge <img> tag; updated license section to CC BY 4.0.
