GWG Anyone have any thoughts about what properties are worth storing for a venue?
[manton] joined the channel
#
[manton] I’m mostly just storing name, latitude, and longitude. For Foursquare venues, I also store the URL. And in Meridian, we’re storing a venue type (based on OpenStreetMap like restaurant, coffee shop, etc. and icon.

#
GWG I was thinking of going for multiple URLs, and locality
#
GWG So, a URL that might represent the canonical URL of the place, and room for other representations

[ggirelli] Hej! Question on the indiewebring 🙂 I noticed that some website that are still listed in the webring are actually no accessible or went down, is it possible to "police" it from a user standpoint? Or to add an automatic check for the presence of the links whenever prev/next webring links are used? 🤔
#
GWG I forget who administers the ring
#
GWG [schmarty]: Is that you?
#
GWG [manton]: Is there a master list of those types?
#
[ggirelli] Yes, I believe it should be [schmarty] 🙂
#
[ggirelli] sorry for spamming in the chat, I could have DMed 🤦‍♂️
#
[schmarty] hello yes! You have discovered the secret user interface which is to ping me here to run the webring gardener script 😅 ggirelli++
#
Loqi ggirelli has 1 karma over the last year

#
GWG [manton]: I think you convinced me to remove h-adr data for now...and reconsider it later
#
[KevinMarks] Other h-card properties can apply - address, phone number etc.

GWG [KevinMarks]: I decided on progressive enhancement....start smaller
#
GWG I need to get minimum viable
mro joined the channel
#
GWG I'm going to start with coordinates, visibility, textual description, street address (for disambiguation of similarly named venues), primary url and alternative urls, and location id. I may go for type as well.

#
angelo what will you use this venue database for?
#
GWG angelo: Archive pages, mostly.
#
angelo i don't follow
#
angelo archived check-ins?
#
[tantek]4 location id — in which database?
#
GWG angelo: A URL where you can see all posts from a venue.
#
GWG [tantek]4: In mine...I have locations as an internal id
#
GWG https://david.shanske.com/location/us/ca/san-francisco/
#
[tantek]4 maybe call it that then, internal ID
#
[tantek]4 otherwise it sounds implicitly global
#
GWG The fact I did that after I set aside space for venues I never used made me think I should rethink my old plans
#
angelo so up until now the only "venue" information was attached to the post itself?
#
GWG angelo: Only in the form of a textual description.
#
GWG I want to start making those a data point.
#
GWG But, I'm questioning how I planned it out, as things have changed drastically since then
#
angelo got it
