What “indexable”, “candidate” and “source-only” mean
Indexable is reviewed, useful first-party content. Candidate has enough structured evidence to consider for editorial work. Source-only remains in the database for research, trends and provenance but is not treated as a standalone Google page. A large feed archive is therefore useful without becoming a large collection of thin pages.
