Description

Description of the issue

The publication of data on the OEP is bound to an open data licence. We cannot guarantee that all uploaded datasets actually fulfil this requirement.

Please have a look at this discussion for further details:
https://github.com/OpenEnergyPlatform/oeplatform/discussions/1562

Ideas of solution

For mitigation and transparency, we should introduce a disclaimer that is visible on every published table.

Draft Disclaimer: We do not guarantee that the published data may carry the licence shown. The verification of the License requires a high level of data literacy that we are building in the Open Energy Family community. Our community-driven approach to open peer review does not claim to be legally binding.
