long and short dataset abstract lead to crawling challenges #5523

Open pvgenuchten opened 3 years ago

pvgenuchten commented 3 years ago

google structured data crawling (jsonld) complains about the length of the abstract field if it is too short (<50) or too long (>5000). suggestion would be for the json-ld representation to increase the size of the abstract by duplicating for example the keyword and organization name into the abstract or on when too long cut off the string at 5000 characters.

@pvgenuchten https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/search-engine-optimisation-for-publishers-best-practice-guide says duplication is a bad idea from an SEO perspective. Isn't this better as a suggestion process?

+1 to warn about this as part of validation But even then, records may get rejected if having a too short abstract...
