Split out from: https://github.com/nuget/nugetgallery/issues/2405

Today, some package searches return a lot of satellite packages.

How can we differentiate satellite packages from other packages?

shishirx34 commented 5 years ago

perhaps introduce a work flow to identify and mark certain packages as satellite packages? It could be an owner/community led effort to mark existing packages as "satellite" packages. Also, going forward on upload provide a way to mark a package as a "satellite" package? Just spit balling here but you get the gist.

shishirx34 commented 5 years ago

we could also identify the satellite packages by generating a reference graph for packages uploaded by the same owner.
