Identity comes first
Every imported work has a stable source identity and provenance. We keep remakes, live-action adaptations and different formats separate. Aliases belong to the same work; they do not inflate the catalogue count. Anime works have a single canonical detail page even if they also appear in film or TV browse lists.
Editorial review is a separate step
Original discovery notes explain context, what to look for and how a work fits a viewing decision. They are not fabricated first-hand reviews or audience ratings. Passing a schema check does not automatically mark a record as editorially reviewed or eligible for search indexing.
Viewing certainty has named states
The initial site has no verified viewing offers. A future approved adapter must track country, provider, offer type, conditions, scope, source and check date.
- Not checked: there is no usable check for this work and country.
- Unsupported country: the configured coverage does not include this region.
- Lookup failed: a technical failure says nothing about whether an offer exists.
- Expired check: historical offers are no longer treated as available now.
- Verified free offer: a dated offer with a zero price and clear access conditions in named coverage.
- Paid options: subscription, add-on, rental or purchase; included does not mean free.
- No free offer found in checked coverage: a scoped result across named services, never a claim about the whole internet.
Dates mean different things
A metadata retrieval date means a source record was fetched. Editorial preparation means discovery notes were prepared. Neither is a playback test. A build does not reset those dates. A source release year does not become an invented month or day, and cinema availability is separate from streaming rights.
