META attributes by count

Collected by VWbot March 1997. About 2/3 of the URLs are from traversing www.yahoo.com to depth 4, the rest from regular runs of searchBC. The data are for information only; no correlation was made between metadata use and domain name.

Note: These are just counts. No endorsement is implied (most of the uncommon ones probably result from typographical errors or misunderstanding the syntax).

TYPE META attributes

These are META attributes such as ObjectType, Type etc. Content-Type has been ignored.
SIC87.Objecttype is used at Vancouver Webpages as an industry classification scheme. Different numeric values have been folded to "nnnn". The scheme is documented here.

NAME and CONTENT have been deleted; certain URLs used HTTP-EQUIV instead of NAME or VALUE instead of CONTENT and these remain.

The Type counts are from a smaller set of URLs than the HTTP-EQUIV and NAME counts, and reflect usage at Vancouver Webpages and the catchment area of the searchBC robot (.bc.ca plus .com,.org registered in BC, Canada).

VW96.ObjectType is documented at VW96-schema.html.
