*Special Pages: Cargo includes special pages like [[Special:CargoQuery]] for direct querying and [[Special:Drilldown]] for interactive data exploration. | |||
*Integration with MediaWiki: It integrates seamlessly with MediaWiki's existing structure, allowing for data to be linked with pages, categories, and other MediaWiki features. | |||
*Customization: Through settings like $wgCargoDefaultStringBytes or $wgCargoMaxQueryLimit, administrators can control how Cargo behaves in terms of data storage limits or query performance. | |||
