**Synopsis**
Cargo is an extension to MediaWiki that provides a lightweight way to store and query the data contained within the calls to templates, such as infoboxes.
This project is aimed at providing a lightweight way to store and query the data contained within the calls to templates such as infoboxes.
In my words the purpose of this project is to make search experience on mediawiki more awesome. Users will be able to query, store query and can even export the result to formats including pngs. jsons, csv and barchart.
After reviewing the code for cargo extension. I believe the project will focus on the following list
1. Defining a user interface for the extension
2. Choice of the concepts and approach to use for implementation of project.
3. Implementation of search and query functionality with PHP and SQL

**About me**
I am a 23 years old student from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife. Nigeria. I at attending extra semester of a B.Sc. Computer Engineering degree at the University of Obafemi Awolowo University.
I can conveniently code in PHP, SQL, HTML, CSS and JS.
At the beginning of this year I took time to evaluate my strength in the above languages and I decided to concentrate more on PHP and Database management m system as a result of my evaluation
I have written an helper plugin in PHP that helps to automatically re-size png images to different sizes xhdpi, hdpi, to ldpi on [[ https://github.com/Goldengide/androidDpiHelper | Github ]].
I have worked with Frameworks like Laravel, Code igniter and CakePHP
I have also worked with a team on health projects that has ranked in at least top 3's in Nigerian Hackathons. They are [[ http://redbank.com.ng | Redbank ]] and [[ http://medifix.ng | Medifix]]
In my free time I enjoy writing lyrics, solving mathematical problems, brainstorming and coming up with cool things to implement with my PHP for example I wrote an algorithm and a UI that takes input as nth term to generate Pascal triangle just with the aim of making it easy for my brother to do his binomial expansion assignment without having to do the Pascal himself. **//I don't just write code to feel like a geek I also write to help a hand//**
**Other commitments**
When the coding period start I will have been done with my present exam which is the reason for the slow completion of my project.
When the coding start I will have sufficient time to work on this project
**Past Experience in Open Source**
I have not had time to do much of open source and I hope to stretch myself to get more familiar with it.
This will be my first experience in open source
I hope to use this opportunity to get more familiar and better with open source code.
I feel it is cool working on what other people have built and improving on it.
Open Source is a message of oneness, unity and love expressed from a developer to another.
