Usage Advice
Use when
- Use for the period a
gmeow:CreativeWorkis ABOUT — the era a documentary covers, the span a history book treats — the dcterms:temporal analogue scoped to creative works.
Avoid when
- Avoid confusing it with WHEN the work was created (that is a creation event's
gmeow:eventInterval) or with an event's own dating; coverage is aboutness-of-time, not production time.
How to use
- Point the
gmeow:CreativeWorkat agmeow:TimeIntervalviagmeow:temporalCoverage; reuse the temporal module's interval rather than minting a parallel span.
