== Why this product doesn't have a Nutri-Score? ==

 +
=== How do I delete an "unknown language"? ===
 +
 
 +
* Unselect the images.
 +
* Delete the texts, but only the ones related to a language, be careful: name, ingredients, but NOT the nutrients.
 +
 
 +
=== What do I do if I find a product which is not food? ===
 +

== Quantity ==
 +
 +
You can find on this wiki some informations about quantities, but the [[Products_quantities|specific article]] is a bit hard to read.
 +
 +
=== What if there are two quantities on the product? ===
 +
Example: "poids net 300 g, poids net égoutté 175 g": https://world.openfoodfacts.org/product/5400113626084/mandarines-delhaize
 +
 +
A: write the both, as you read it on the product.
 +
 +
=== What to do if there is an "e" (or ℮) specified after the Quantity? ===
 +
Example: https://world.openfoodfacts.org/product/7613036024419/le-bon-paris-herta
 +
 +
A: The "e-sign" (for "estimated") means that the quantity or volume is an average value (source: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimated_sign Estimated sign], Wikipedia). You can add an "e" if you see it or, better, use the ℮ sign. It's not a big deal if you cannot or forget it. If you feel very happy to use an ℮ you can have a look to all the products containing "e" instead of ℮: https://world.openfoodfacts.org/quality/quantity-contains-e
 +
 +
== Ingredients ==
 +
 +
=== Do I have to fill the ingredients I know even if it's not written on the product? ===
 +
For example, I know pork ribs contains pork. If the percentage of pork (nearly 100%) is not written on the package, do I have to fill the "ingredients" field?
 +
 +
A: Yes. You can write "Pork". Example: https://world.openfoodfacts.org/product/20207656/british-pork-loin-chops-strathvale
 +
 +
=== In the ingredients field, do I have to tell if ingredients are organic? ===
 +
 +
A: Yes. Example: https://us.openfoodfacts.org/product/00633109/organic-lentil-vegetable-soup-trader-joe-s
 +
 +
=== In the ingredients field, do I have to repeat "Ingredients"? ===
 +
 +
A: No you don't have to, but it's not a big problem.
