The cards on https://library.kiwix.org to download content packages currently provide a very minimal description of the package.

Often, a card appears multiple times with the same title and description, but different download size. It is unclear what the difference is, only taking a peek at the download URL reveals that it is the type of media (maxi/nopic/mini) and date of the archive.

I suggest to add at least the date of the archive and the media type to the cards, so that users can properly decide which package they want to download.

Example:
Screenshot from the package download page, displaying three seemingly identical cards to download Wikipedia
The three cards for Wikipedia are seemingly identical, the only difference is the download size. In reality, they differ in the media type (maxi/nopic/mini) and date of the archive, as revealed by the download URL.
The difference between nopic and mini is also not apparent.
