Verification statuses
DividendTen uses data status values such as verified, partially verified, initial, demo, stale, and unknown. A financial-data page should display its status and caveat where readers can see it.
| Status | Indexing rule | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| verified | index,follow | The page may be indexable when a real source or methodology reference and verification date exist. |
| partially_verified | index,follow only with visible caveats | The page may be indexable only when limitations are visible on the page. |
| initial, demo, stale, unknown | index,follow with visible caveats | The page may be published when source, methodology, date, and non-advice context are visible. |
Required visible fields
Data-heavy pages should show a data status label, source or methodology reference, caveat, and non-advice language. Verification dates, retrieval dates, source names, and source URLs should be shown only when real values exist.
Current dataset status
The current benchmark dataset is labelled as market snapshot data. That means related financial-data pages must remain index,follow and must be presented with methodology, source, and non-advice context.
