For clarity please, are you suggesting each ingredient links to an article that gives detailed info on its components? or simply a pop-up giving brief detailed info

[stephanegigandet]

Good idea. We could create a tappable list for ingredients for which we have a corresponding Wikipedia page in the ingredients taxonomy.

@stephanegigandet Would you like me to work on this issue? What can i do. Is there already a standing wikipedia page within the openfoodfacts site or like an appendix to which each tappable ingredient would lead?

[stephanegigandet]

Hi @otatadeabigail , you can work on this if you want.

Here is how we can do a simple first version:

1. have a look at /taxonomies/ingredients.txt , the definition file of the ingredients taxonomy

Some entries like en:rennet have a wikipedia property:

2. when generating the knowledge panel for ingredients analysis (see /lib/ProductOpener/KnowledgePanels.pm ), we can check if the ingredients have this property, in which case we can pass it to the knowledge panel template (look in /templates/ ) so that we can display a link to Wikipedia.

@stephanegigandet so I'm to search for ingredients that have this property(rennet),
e.g I saw Whey as one of the ingredients listed under taxonomy/ingriedient.txt and it's non-vegan
so I am to look out for other ingredients as this, list them out as they'd make up the "knowledge panel for ingriedient analysis " right?
