differs from source now and the newer version for the same year already is here: File:Domestic-material-consumption-per-capita.png Prototyperspective (talk) 14:59, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep This is still a true copy of the image on OWID at the time of upload and is therefore a valuable record. Keep Jason.nlw (talk) 15:36, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If it is kept I don't the title, description etc are adequate if the source map is now different, indicating the version here is flawed. If it is useful as an example of how maps for a given year on OWID can change and be improved over time or flawed then that should be clear, for example via the file title.

It is possible this version is flawed. It is also possible that a slighlty different measure has been used to plot the chart- given that the descriptions are different. It is also possible that the current version has been mislabeled as 2019 when it is infact a later date. All seem equaly plausible to me. To get to the bottom of it will require a thorough investigation and contact with the source provider and i really dont think a deletion request is a fair or proportional approach in this case. As the uploader i'm happy to look into it. But it will likely take more the 5 days. Jason.nlw (talk) 17:41, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why keep a flawed version and make much of an effort to find out why it's flawed instead of just uploading the fixed latest version? There are obviously issues if it differs this much from the current map for the same year. See the difference for Norway. Details about what was needed to be adjusted or harmonized/standardized for the map would be useful in the description of the latest version if available.

@Jason.nlw: Have you an update on why one of the maps is slightly different? Abzeronow (talk) 19:03, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
