The source policy puts official Marvel Rivals posts first, clearly labels non-official coverage, and holds speculative builds, codes, callouts, and rankings.
Source policy summary
This source policy exists because Marvel Rivals Season 9 has real search demand and fast-moving update coverage. The site can be useful only if it separates official facts, labeled third-party coverage, hands-on evidence, and unknowns.
The source policy starts with official Marvel Rivals posts, official trailers, official platform/store links, and official patch notes. High-trust reporting can support context pages, but the source policy marks that coverage differently from official patch text.
What can publish now
Pages can publish when the source policy can tie the main answer to official evidence or a clearly labeled absence of verified details. Release date, platforms, gameplay basics, trailers, news, patch notes, Regenerative Shields, and conservative hero/map trackers all meet that standard.
What stays held
The source policy keeps exact Jubilee builds, The Hood kit claims, Thebes callouts, Team-Up tier lists, codes, battle pass reward tables, event missions, and final Season 9 rankings out of navigation until they have evidence. Those pages can become drafts later, but they should not appear in sitemap, footer, or homepage modules as if they were ready.
How updates work
When a new official post changes a fact, the relevant guide page should update and the news log should record the change. This source policy is also why the tier list page is a watchlist instead of a fake ranking table.
