Query goal: | Find unique indexes that have too generic names like "key" or the name contain too generic words like "data" (all constraints restrict data in the table), or the name is an abbreviation of a constraint type name. |
Notes about the query: | The query considers both names in English and in Estonian. |
Query type: | Problem detection (Each row in the result could represent a flaw in the design) |
Query reliability: | Medium (Medium number of false-positive results) |

Data source: | system catalog only |
