Metadata.yaml seems to be unnecessary

[skalee]

scripts/generate_metadata.rb produces YAML like this one:

concept_count: 1302
term_count: 8704
version: '20200602'

These are used on About page:

== Current content ({{ site.data.metadata.version }} edition)

The current contents in Geolexica are from the 5th release of the
MLGT ({{ site.data.metadata.version }} edition), consisting of:

* {{ site.data.metadata.concept_count }} English language terminology entries (terms/definitions)
from published ISO/TC 211 standards as of June 2020;

* {{ site.data.metadata.term_count }} translated terminology entries (full or partial)
covering fourteen languages, which represents close to all of
the participating countries in ISO/TC 211.

I see no reason for calculating concept_count nor term_count in a separate script. These two numbers should be calculated by Jekyll-Geolexica, similarly to how language statistics (displayed on Statistics page) are calculated: https://github.com/geolexica/geolexica-server/blob/35e2b9a1bc4f27e06634be8fc7430e28495512dc/lib/jekyll/geolexica/glossary.rb#L61-L70.

Glossary version cannot be calculated. It should be kept somewhere in geolexica/isotc211-glossary. Alternatively, it should be set in site config.

Correct, we can calculate these if possible.

Yes, we need to find a place to keep it. It should be kept in isotc211-glossary.

Okay, let's do it this way:

• concept_count — total number of concepts, should be obtained from Jekyll-Geolexica
• term_count — total number of localized concepts, should be obtained from Jekyll-Geolexica
• version — cannot be obtained from Jekyll-Geolexica. Let's move it to glossary/version.yaml or integrate into glossary/tc211-termbase.meta.yaml. Is the glossary/tc211-termbase.meta.yaml good place for that? Will it break something? CC @strogonoff

Glossarist doesn't yet support editing tc211-termbase.meta.yaml , but it can be edited manually. Won't break anything, let's proceed. Thanks!
