In the vein of #1018, the Tracker team has reviewed the other categories as well and is requesting these updates (detailed in full here with draft mock-ups)

General asks:

  • Alphabetize the metadata categories (Legal case can/should be at bottom just before “related cases”)
  • On database filters page, display text for date filters is messed up: “took place between after” and “took place between before” (Switch to “took place after” and “took place before”)
  • Remove parenthetical “incl. legal case” from “leak prosecution” and “prior restraint”

Assault metadata

  • rename entry line from "physical assault" to just "assault"

Border Stop metadata
Remove: (will result in deleting this data from the database)

  • Stopped at border?
  • Did authorities ask for social media username?
  • Did authorities ask for social media password?
  • Were devices searched or seized?

Chilling Statement metadata (to be newly created)
- [ ] Add 'actor': (politician / public figure) [no recording of name]
- [ ] Add 'source of statement': (investigation / legal action / legislation / public statement / social media)
Removed 2023-10-31 by @chigby for not being part of relevant Google doc

Denial of Access metadata

  • Add “type of denial” (select all that apply): (changes in policy or practice / government events / other / press credential or media list) -- In progress Add field type_of_denial under Denial of Access category #1781
  • Rephrase existing language from 'Politicians or public officials involved' to 'Government agency or public official involved'

Equipment Damage metadata

  • Rename “Equipment Broken” to “Equipment Damaged”
  • Add actor (with the same general options that we use for assaults) above equipment entry (this should mirror equipment search/seizure)
  • Rename button from “add equipment broken” to just “add equipment” with matching display text

Equipment Search or Seizure metadata

  • Merge “Equipment Seizure or Damage” into the existing “Equipment Searched or Seized" menu
  • Rename button from “add equipment search or seized” to just “add equipment”
  • Remove 'Actor" as only actor viable for counting under the category is law enforcement

Prior Restraint metadata
- [ ] Add date entry fields for date ordered and date lifted
- If possible, we would love for this to essentially be used to field a "length of restraint" display metadata / potentially make "length of restraint" searchable. Date itself does not need to be added to filter. Moved to #1784

  • Add "Mistakenly released materials?" checkbox

Subpoena/Legal Order metadata
For "subpoena of journalism" entry field

  • Rename as “Subpoena/legal order targeting journalist”
  • Akin to the arrest category changes: will have a "add legal order" button
  • From there, a “Select legal order type” [select one]: (motion to compel / subpoena / warrant / other)
  • Then, "Select information requested" : “communications or work product / testimony about confidential source / other testimony”
  • Status selection w/ date and button for adding additional statuses

For “Legal order for journalist’s records” entry field

  • Rename as "Subpoena/legal order to third party"
