Template talk:Metadata

Consumed by?
, is the property this Template creates consumed by anything? Was this just a precursor to the "Article description" property and can be removed? I don't see much of a point for duplication if the latter is true. Thanks for your time. --Grknight (talk) 14:57, 29 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Ah, I see it is used in an RDF creation, but I do wonder if anything today consumes it. Perhaps the old packages did.  Still investigating. --Grknight (talk) 15:38, 29 November 2021 (UTC)


 * , RDF creation? Resource Description Framework? I think you're right in the first comment; as far as I understand it was a precursor before the Article description property was created and is subsequently not used on new pages. I believe the only advantage to this was that it was supposed to help web robots better understand wiki pages as they crawl... I'm not opposed to removing since it's not used much around the wiki and I see little advantage to it. --Maffblaster (talk) 18:23, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
