rework extended metadata table #370

Closed za158 closed 3 weeks ago

za158 commented 1 month ago

@jmelot Now that we have a sense of what the public dataset will look like, is it worth retooling the metadata table in company detail view to follow it?

Some of these "fields" are not going to be fields in the underlying dataset, and the Fortune 500 thing is weird to include since we're not going to have that at launch

jmelot commented 1 month ago

Yeah good point. I read over the dataset docs again and compared to what we currently have in the table. The only change that occurred to me was to remove "continent" since it's really just there for filtering purposes/people will know this from the country. Do you have anything else in mind?

Also I was noticing yesterday that we have code to include the canonical company name as one of the aliases. I don't remember why we decided to do that, but anyway do you still think that makes sense? I'm not sure I do but don't feel strongly

Let's rework the table so it looks like this:

Name Country Website Stage Tickers Groups

Under the table, add the following text: _Additional metadata about this company, including aliases, parent-subsidary relations, and unique identifiers in PARAT's source datasets, are available in the Private-Sector AI Indicators dataset_

For tickers, only use US and China exchanges (https://github.com/georgetown-cset/parat/issues/273#issuecomment-2130049525)

Groups should list any Group (from Airtable) of which the company is a member, among all groups marked for display in the interface (eg not the Fortune 500)

Also I was noticing yesterday that we have code to include the canonical company name as one of the aliases. I don't remember why we decided to do that, but anyway do you still think that makes sense? I'm not sure I do but don't feel strongly

I have no opinion on this whatsoever

I'm not sure we should remove aliases from the UI - I think these might be helpful in some cases to understand what is counted as part of a parat company, and that we shouldn't make the user download the dataset to check

jmelot commented 4 weeks ago

Bleh nevermind I'll just remove it. Actually looking over some aliases, they don't really seem to add a lot for a user
