Data integrity

Source first. Explain everything.

Each research lab names its sources, definitions, update behavior, and limitations so visitors can judge the information for themselves.

01

MMA sources

Fight outcomes, round statistics, physical attributes, and profile links originate from UFCStats data. The production refresh uses a daily-updated archive mirror because direct runtime scraping of UFCStats is unreliable and may be blocked.

Statleaders may be used as a secondary official reference for leaderboard context, but it does not replace bout-level UFCStats records.

02

MLB sources

Schedules, active rosters, game logs, handedness splits, probable pitchers, venues, weather fields, and posted batting orders come from the MLB Stats API. Early HRR market listings are supplied through SportsGameOdds and stored in a protected cache; public visitors cannot trigger paid provider requests.

HRR means Hits + Runs + RBIs recorded in one game. Recent windows are ordered chronologically with the newest game on the right.

03

WNBA sources

WNBA teams, rosters, schedules, results, and player game logs are read from ESPN's basketball data services and cached by DanksData. Player charts use regular-season box-score fields including minutes, points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers, and made three-pointers.

Season switches request that season's roster and game-log records. Missing or delayed source values are shown as unavailable rather than estimated.

04

NCAA Football sources

College football schedules, scores, team records, rankings, broadcasts, venues, weather, and recent results are read from ESPN's college football data services and cached for 15 minutes.

Recent-form comparisons use each team's five latest completed games. Head-to-head history searches the current and two preceding seasons. These are descriptive comparisons, not opponent-adjusted projections.

05

Update policy

MMA archive refreshes must pass response, size, format, reconciliation, and range checks before replacing the working dataset. MLB, NCAA Football, and WNBA schedules and research profiles refresh from current source data, while sportsbook markets change only after an owner-authorized cache refresh succeeds.

06

Validation gates

  • MMA records, win methods, fight logs, and finish timelines must reconcile.
  • Percentage metrics must remain inside valid ranges.
  • MLB, NCAA Football, and WNBA recent-game windows must be chronologically correct and tied to the selected athlete or team.
  • Previous-day and expired market events are hidden automatically.
  • Missing source values are shown as pending or unavailable rather than estimated.

07

Known limitations

Source services can revise records, delay lineups, postpone games, omit physical details, or become temporarily unavailable. Active-roster status does not guarantee an MLB or WNBA start, and an early market listing does not confirm a batting-order position.

08
