Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to characterise a creative work with one or more genres; non-functional and contestable, so multiple and competing genre claims may coexist.

Avoid when

• Avoid treating any one genre claim as authoritative (carry disputes on the statement layer with gmeow:accordingTo, Principle 9) and avoid using it for the work's kind (gmeow:CreativeWorkType).

How to use

• Point the work at gmeow:Genre individuals; when claims conflict, reify them as standpoint-indexed statements rather than picking a winner.
