As a

user browsing a CKAN package which has a resource in a bad format

I want to

be alerted to the possibility of scraping it on scraperwiki

Implementation

This should be done in a CKAN extension. It should appear in a side-bar on the package read page.

If the package does not have a resource with scraperwiki.com in the url, then it displays this message:

Title: Scrape it
Image: (Scraperwiki dumper truck)
Body text: Could this data be in a better format? Why not use Scraperwiki to extract data from tables, Excel or PDF for everyone's benefit? You can ​request this data is scraped or even ​write the scraper yourself.
