Every one of the fourteen sources was fetched and parsed. Twelve are healthy.
The two findings that are not about a game we just added:
Fandom's posture tightened on 2026-08-19 and now covers every wiki. Yesterday
blhx.fandom.com served robots.txt a 200, which is what the r1999 permission
argument leaned on; today every Fandom wiki tried answers 403 to our fetcher
and gives a real browser a challenge that never resolves. So r1999 and fgo are
permanently fixture-backed, and no new Fandom source can be added at all —
which is what blocks Nikke, whose data is the best of anything unbuilt. It is
blocked rather than declined: one person on an address Fandom serves can read
that file and unblock it.
Infinity Nikki's source is stale and there is nowhere to move it. The Game8
page was last updated 31 August 2025, mentions 2026 zero times, and publishes
five events with endsAt: null that read as live indefinitely — worse than an
empty lane, through a source that looks healthy to the runner because a stale
page is not a broken one. Every replacement was checked and none works. That
one is a decision for the owner, not a fix: retiring the lane drops a GameId
that prefixes every completion key its readers hold.
SOURCES.md carries each game's outcome and the reasoning behind the declines,
so the next pass does not re-derive any of it.

The loudest feedback on the first release was "not enough games", so the
same wikis get researched again every pass — and the expensive half of
that work is not finding a page, it is establishing that a page which
fetches and parses cleanly is a 2021 archive, or states a wall clock with
no timezone, or belongs to a game that is shutting down in October.
This writes down what was actually checked on 2026-08-18: what each page
publishes, which existing parser can already read it, whether CI could
ever fetch it, and the hazard that would produce a confidently wrong date.
The verdicts stay proposals — once one is acted on the ruling belongs in
AGENTS.md § Scraping conduct, next to the sources already declined.
Indexed in the doc table so it is found before the search starts, not
after.
