  owner = NA_character_
)

Arguments

x

hyperlink

A link to a web page where more can be read about the data. Preferably this is a link into the system that calls this function.

owner

The name (usually an email address) of whoever should be contacted to deal with problems or questions about this data.

Value

'x' with provenance information added as an attribute. The new information will be appended to any existing provenance.
