Hi Amirouche

Implementation:

It could be implemented by adding the fields to package-objects.

nitpick, those are records in guile scheme.
Did you mean to correct my use of "object" here?
Your are right about that.

Scheme Syntax: define-record-type type
(constructor fieldname =E2=80=A6)
predicate
(fieldname accessor [modifier]) =E2=80=A6

I finally begin to understand all these words an Scheme-ways of doing things.

Have I understood correctly that we have at least 1 nested record types in guix? E.g. the package record contains an origin record and a lot of other fields.
=C2=A0 
The rationale for adding screenshot-url to the rec=
ipe is that this parsing of wikidata->en-WP->url-for-first-image
for every package in our list is quite expensive. Better to do it once an=
d perhaps update all the screenshot-urls
once a year or so.

I think the screenshot-url field will not be very helpful that can be
fetched based on wikidata identifier.
Ok, I understand your point.
