Hello! This page serves as a hub for Project Cargo-complete, aimed at getting our article metadata in order. We've put this together to try and make it easier to track down and identify articles in need of metadata updates.
Wiki articles need 160-200 character summaries so that they can be shown as alerts to users. Let's say a wiki user is on a website where product X is being sold that screws them over. We will have a browser plugin that pops up an alert with a summary on how that product screws over the customer.
 
This means the wiki articles have to have a 160-200 character summary, but many do not! We need people to edit the articles below to add a 160 character summary to them in the appropriate area so that the page will have that short description come up when queried by a browser plugin or something else that is looking up companies/products in the wiki. We've put this together to try and make it easier to track down and identify articles in need of metadata updates.
===What are Cargo tables?===
===What are Cargo tables?===
Cargo tables are used on the Consumer Rights Wiki for storing structured metadata about articles. These can be used to create queries on the wiki (like the ones generating the tables you see below) as well as accessed via the wiki's API for use in external projects, such as the wiki's browser extension project. We have a few different Cargo tables, which are linked below. Each corresponds to a certain [[Consumer Rights Wiki:Article types|article type]] (although not all article types have Cargo tables).

The purpose of project Cargo-Complete is to ensure that every Cargo table on the wiki contains all the information that it should, and that every relevant page has a Cargo table. This page contains tables which fetch all of the articles with each kind of Cargo table present on them, and by checking over these tables, you should be able to identify articles where the Cargo data is missing, incorrect, or incomplete.
