== Future Dashboard Logic: Managing Large Archives (1000+ Records) ==

This document contains pre-validated Cargo and Page Forms logic for future implementation when the Digital Asset library grows. These tools are designed to provide a "GPS" for researchers, focusing them on actionable tasks rather than static lists.

=== 1. The "Needs Attention" Filter ===
Automatically lists records missing critical fields (e.g., Source or Date). Once data is entered via a form, the record automatically disappears from this queue.

<pre>
{| class="wikitable sortable"
! Asset Name !! Status !! Action
{{#cargo_query:
|tables=DigitalAssets
|fields=_pageName=Name, status=Status
|where=source IS NULL OR source=''
|limit=10
|format=template
|template=Asset_Review_Row
|named args=yes
}}
|}
</pre>

=== 2. Recent Activity Feed ===
Maintains team awareness by showing the latest contributions. This keeps the wiki feeling "alive" for the 5 club members.

<pre>
{{#cargo_query:
|tables=DigitalAssets
|fields=_pageName=Name, _ID
|order by=_ID DESC
|limit=5
|format=list
}}
</pre>

=== 3. Quick Search & Record Jump ===
A high-efficiency alternative to scrolling. Allows users to jump directly to a specific asset's form by name.

<pre>
{{#forminput:
|form=DigitalAsset
|query string=namespace=DigitalAsset
|button text=Go to Asset
|placeholder=Enter Asset Name...
}}
</pre>

=== 4. Stale Record Identification ===
Surfaces older entries that may need re-validation or updated scholarship.

<pre>
{{#cargo_query:
|tables=DigitalAssets
|fields=_pageName=Name
|order by=_ID ASC
|limit=10
|format=list
}}
</pre>

=== 5. Future Goal: Cargo Drilldown ===
When the library exceeds 500+ items, the [[Special:Drilldown]] page (defined by Cargo) should be linked on the Dashboard to allow faceted filtering by "Year," "Type," or "Location."
