Talk:Harmonized System

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Isn't there a way to access the Harmonized System Data Base freely and publicly?

Because if it is available for public access it would be good to include it as part of Wikisources, and use it precisely to "Harmonize" different categories of wikipedia as for example Chemical Products, minerals, etc. (the World Customs Organization has categorized almost every product (commodities) that can be commercialized and it has included a unique number to each one)

It would also pump visits, because it would give an advantage over the commercial counterparts that sell the information, and this will make Business people want to contribute to Wikipedia as well, including their knowledge of Industrial, Commerce and business stuff in it.

In my Country (Argentina) I can download the full National Customs database in csv format (*.csv Comma-separated values) if it is useful just Mail me or send me a message, I am working on the Chemicals Wikiproyect so I’ll be asking the same thing over there.

I'm sure there is an international base data with international trade statistics based on the harmonized system, but i can't find it. Is there someone who can halp me? In Brazil, we have the Alice system (Sistema Alice) with this kind of information.
