Richer metadata (dataset attributes for navigation)

[pudo]

This is a bit crazy, but I think part of the difficulty of navigating OpenSpending right now is that we're asking people to name things which don't really have a name. Instead, we should be getting them to describe the dataset in much more detail, including details such as these:

• What is the name of the administrative body to which it applies?
• What is the level of government that this applies to?
• What stage in the budget cycle does this dataset most represent?
• What is the name of the political body which decided it?
• Where was it initially published on the web?
• When was it initially published?
• What is the temporary extent and granularity of the data?

Wiki brainstorm exists here: How can we structure the datasets?
