Sources & scope

Articles are discovered through GDELT and filtered by publisher country and selected subject. This is not a list of every article about Sri Lanka. Article rights remain with the original publishers.

The current collector requests up to 250 recent records per country and category. Counts describe that sample. Syndicated reporting may appear across publishers; publisher counts do not establish independent confirmation.

Topics are extracted and ranked automatically. A “limited coverage” label means fewer than 10 articles in the selected saved window. A retrieval older than 12 hours is marked as older coverage. Empty results, missing overviews and retrieval failures are shown separately.
