Improvement ideas

CAT wiki

Is there a way for an article to include an automatic summary/snippet/preview from another article?
- That could be an intuitive way to create pages about a company with typical subject and expository content (more encyclopedic and story-like) but still keep individual problems/practices/incidents granular so they can be organized and referenced (eg, by type of "offense" and even by types of companies committing them)
- It would be good not creating thousands of "categories" that are just containers for both the "encyclopedic" and "narrative" content (each with their respective types of company/incident/etc tags).
- Does wiki support this?
Suggestions of AI resources to summarize Louis's videos (eg, on YouTube)
- Is this the result of an effort like that? AI_Summaries_&_Transcriptions
Programmatic ways to check/enforce consistency in tagging, contents, etc.?
