Why another CRT database site?
- We want to be maximally open and agile to new data. Hence the wiki format.
- For me personally, I wanted to know how to make a MediaWiki site that puts schema-fied data first, rather than "loose" data like you find scattered on e.g. Wikipedia
- Want to cover worldwide, not have North America bias
- Want to integrate natively with EveryCRT
Feature list
- CRT model data capture
- Expressive format for inputs, outputs, multiple power voltages, etc.
- See data format in CRT Model form/template
- Search page
- Wanted to use native Semantic MediaWiki search but ended up needing to write custom JS
- Document upload (for manuals, brochures, etc.)
- Data model applies them to multiple CRT models at once (if necessary)
- Supports storing files on wiki as well as e.g. archive.org
- CRT image storage
- Bot-friendly. MCP editing is encouraged (with human oversight)
- Data sharing friendly - MIT license for contributions
TODO list
- Contributing guide (CRT Model form walkthrough)
- Lua modules okay
- CRT model schema explanation?
- CRT accessories, remotes, stands, etc. pages
- How to subsect AV devices?
