Wiki Schema

Domain

Knowledge base for One Small Crawl (production id IBC2026-SNAIL-001), an animated short built for the IBC Accelerator 2026 showcase. Hybrid pipeline: authentic archival footage retrieved via the ARC pipeline, AI-generated character animation and VFX, era-style enhancement, and sound design. Authoritative machine-readable source: the MovieLabs OMC (Ontology for Media Creation) JSON export received 2026-09-02 (extracted to ../movielabs-osc-export/).

Conventions

  • File names: lowercase, hyphens, no spaces.
  • Every wiki page starts with YAML frontmatter (see below).
  • Use [[wikilinks]] to link between pages (minimum 2 outbound links per page).
  • When updating a page, always bump the updated date.
  • Every new page must be added to index.md under the correct section.
  • Every action must be appended to log.md.
  • Strict ASCII policy: all wiki files are byte-clean ASCII. No em/en dashes, no smart quotes, no CJK/fullwidth punctuation. Fancy punctuation is replaced with ASCII (--, ->, ...). This is enforced because model output on this machine intermittently emits non-ASCII; the perl purge command is in the log.
  • Wiki pages use wiki cross-links in [[bracket]] form; raw-layer pages are type: source with absolute path frontmatter.
  • Provenance markers: on pages that synthesize 3+ sources, append ^[raw/.../source.md] at paragraph ends where a specific source supports the claim.

Frontmatter

---
title: Page Title
created: YYYY-MM-DD
updated: YYYY-MM-DD
type: entity | concept | source | comparison | query | summary
tags: [from taxonomy below]
sources: [raw/.../source-name.md]
confidence: high | medium | low
---

confidence and contested are optional but recommended. Lint surfaces contested: true and confidence: low pages for review.

raw/ Frontmatter

Raw sources use type: source, path: (absolute on-disk location), ingested:, and sha256: of the body (everything after the closing ---).

Tag Taxonomy

  • Production: production, project, deliverable, timeline, ibc2026, meeting, marketing
  • Media/layers: archive, ai-generated, ai-enhanced, composite, score, animatic, audio
  • Eras: silent, newsreel, kodachrome, vhs, digital, era-look
  • Ontology/tech: omc, movie-labs, ontology, schema, naming, pipeline, tool, unreal, metadata, compliance, transparency, kitsu, google-cloud, ai-editor, hardware, color, ves, inference, model, unsloth, ornith, lfm, qwen
  • Story: character, snail, route-66, narrative, artemis-ii, space
  • Team: team, person, rai, ibc, editor, agent, organization, ethics, frames, aimici, xrbb, etc-usc, itv, enigmatic, gc-sc, press-play-labs, bbc, holli, insa, open-source
  • Ethics: ethics, responsible-ai, transparency, disclosure, eu-ai-act, accountability, copyright, compliance, provenance, c2pa
  • Meta: experiment, demo, confidence Rule: every tag on a page must appear in this taxonomy. Add new tags here BEFORE using them.

Page Thresholds

  • Create a page when an entity/concept appears in 2+ sources OR is central to one source.
  • Add to existing page when a source mentions something already covered.
  • DON’T create a page for passing mentions.
  • Split a page when it exceeds ~200 lines.
  • Archive a page when fully superseded (move to _archive/, remove from index).

Entity Pages

One page per notable entity: overview, key facts and dates, relationships ([[wikilinks]]), source references.

Concept Pages

One page per concept: definition, current state of knowledge, open questions, related concepts ([[wikilinks]]).

Comparison Pages

Side-by-side analyses: what/why, dimensions (table), verdict, sources.

Update Policy

  1. Check dates – newer sources generally supersede older ones.
  2. If genuinely contradictory, note both positions with dates and sources.
  3. Mark the contradiction in frontmatter: contradictions: [page-name].
  4. Flag for user review in the lint report.

Source of Truth Hierarchy (One Small Crawl)

  1. Agent Production Bible v1 (raw/movielabs/agent-production-bible.md) – governance, agents, pipeline, hard constraints.
  2. Era & Visual Look Guide v001 (raw/movielabs/era-look-guide.md) – per-scene look; wins over Bible on look parameters.
  3. OSC Asset Naming Schema v1.0 (raw/movielabs/asset-naming-schema.md) – file naming.
  4. PeriodO crosswalk v001 (raw/movielabs/show-ont-periodo-crosswalk.md) – period gazetteer, research corpus.
  5. Raw source notes in raw/archive/, raw/rai/, etc. – on-disk assets.
