Therefore, flags for not available and confidential data should be always included. However, it is questionable whether estimates need always to be flagged. In publications and in Statistics Explained, '-' should be used instead of ':z' and ' ' instead of 'b'. Also, Italics can be used in tables to mark estimated data e and provisional value p in both printed publications and Statistics Explained. For printed publications it is sufficient that the explanation of the italic is in the text.
However for Statistics Explained it is preferable to add a footnote below the table explaining the italic, since the table needs to be "stand alone" in case someone links to the table and not to the whole article. The flags 'e', 'f' and 'p' are only meaningful when combined with a statistical value. The time axis in graphs should be labelled in a commonly understandable form. One of the following alternatives should be used:.
