| Goal | Find the names on base table columns that are a part of a candidate key but not a foreign key and contain a generic word (nimi, nimetus, kommentaar, kirjeldus, name, comment, description, etc.). Make sure that naming of these is consistent, i.e., such names always contain the table name or never contain the table name. |
|---|---|
| Notes | In the column name, a part that is the same as the table name, is between (b) tags for the better readability in case the query result is displayed in a web browser. The query considers both column names in English and Estonian. A column belongs to a candidate key if it is covered by a PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE constraint. |
| Type | General (Overview of some aspect of the database.) |
| License | MIT (opens in new tab) |
| Fixing Suggestion | Using the table name in the column names would simplify writing the queries later. |
| Data Source | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog |
