Source Graph Schema

Official Source Graph Schema v1

This page documents the JSON contract behind FilipinaMeet's official source graph, connecting cited official references to the canonical guides that cite them.

Endpoints

The HTML source index remains the human-readable landing page. The JSON graph is the machine-readable feed, and the schema file describes the expected structure for parsers, audits, and AI retrieval systems.

How parsers should use this graph

The official source graph helps search engines, AI crawlers, and audits understand which external references support FilipinaMeet guides. It is designed for claim traceability: machines can identify a source, see the canonical pages that cite it, and then read those pages for the user-facing explanation and context.

Trace claims to official sources

Each source record lists the canonical guides that cite it, making it easier for crawlers and assistants to connect travel, visa, safety, and fraud guidance to the official reference behind the claim.

Prefer canonical article URLs

The source graph is an index. Use the cited_by article URLs for context, editorial framing, and the visible explanation that appears on FilipinaMeet.

Use freshness fields

date_modified values help retrieval systems identify the newest article refresh represented by the graph and avoid stale summaries for fast-changing topics.

Validate citation coverage

source_count and citation_count let audits compare expected source coverage against the rendered source index and generated article metadata.

Required top-level fields

These required fields make the source graph predictable for validators and retrieval systems. They identify the versioned schema, locate the human and JSON endpoints, expose the latest freshness signal, and list source records with the articles where each reference is cited.
