For an [Article](https://schema.org/Article), typically a [NewsArticle](https://schema.org/NewsArticle), the backstory property provides a textual summary giving a brief explanation of why and how an article was created. In a journalistic setting this could include information about reporting process, methods, interviews, data sources, etc.

Media type typically expressed using a MIME format (see [IANA site](http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml) and [MDN reference](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types)), e.g. application/zip for a SoftwareApplication binary, audio/mpeg for .mp3 etc. In cases where a [CreativeWork](https://schema.org/CreativeWork) has several media type representations, [encoding](https://schema.org/encoding) can be used to indicate each [MediaObject](https://schema.org/MediaObject) alongside particular [encodingFormat](https://schema.org/encodingFormat) information. Unregistered or niche encoding and file formats can be indicated instead via the most appropriate URL, e.g. defining Web page or a Wikipedia/Wikidata entry.
Class Property

Indicates the party responsible for generating and publishing the current structured data markup, typically in cases where the structured data is derived automatically from existing published content but published on a different site. For example, student projects and open data initiatives often re-publish existing content with more explicitly structured metadata. The [sdPublisher](https://schema.org/sdPublisher) property helps make such practices more explicit.

The "spatial" property can be used in cases when more specific properties (e.g. [locationCreated](https://schema.org/locationCreated), [spatialCoverage](https://schema.org/spatialCoverage), [contentLocation](https://schema.org/contentLocation)) are not known to be appropriate.
Class Property

The "temporal" property can be used in cases where more specific properties (e.g. [temporalCoverage](https://schema.org/temporalCoverage), [dateCreated](https://schema.org/dateCreated), [dateModified](https://schema.org/dateModified), [datePublished](https://schema.org/datePublished)) are not known to be appropriate.
Class Property

Conditions that affect the availability of, or method(s) of access to, an item. Typically used for real world items such as an [ArchiveComponent](https://schema.org/ArchiveComponent) held by an [ArchiveOrganization](https://schema.org/ArchiveOrganization). This property is not suitable for use as a general Web access control mechanism. It is expressed only in natural language. For example "Available by appointment from the Reading Room" or "Accessible only from logged-in accounts ".
Class Property

The status of a creative work in terms of its stage in a lifecycle. Example terms include Incomplete, Draft, Published, Obsolete. Some organizations define a set of terms for the stages of their publication lifecycle.

The service provider, service operator, or service performer; the goods producer. Another party (a seller) may offer those services or goods on behalf of the provider. A provider may also serve as the seller.

The publishingPrinciples property indicates (typically via [URL](https://schema.org/URL)) a document describing the editorial principles of an [Organization](https://schema.org/Organization) (or individual, e.g. a [Person](https://schema.org/Person) writing a blog) that relate to their activities as a publisher, e.g. ethics or diversity policies. When applied to a [CreativeWork](https://schema.org/CreativeWork) (e.g. [NewsArticle](https://schema.org/NewsArticle)) the principles are those of the party primarily responsible for the creation of the [CreativeWork](https://schema.org/CreativeWork). While such policies are most typically expressed in natural language, sometimes related information (e.g. indicating a [funder](https://schema.org/funder)) can be expressed using schema.org terminology.
Class Property

The rating given in this review. Note that reviews can themselves be rated. The `reviewRating` applies to rating given by the review. The [aggregateRating](https://schema.org/aggregateRating) property applies to the review itself, as a creative work.
Class Property
2 typesschema.org
Indicates (by URL or string) a particular version of a schema used in some CreativeWork. This property was created primarily to indicate the use of a specific schema.org release, e.g. `10.0` as a simple string, or more explicitly via URL, `https://schema.org/docs/releases.html#v10.0`. There may be situations in which other schemas might usefully be referenced this way, e.g. `http://dublincore.org/specifications/dublin-core/dces/1999-07-02/` but this has not been carefully explored in the community.

The spatialCoverage of a CreativeWork indicates the place(s) which are the focus of the content. It is a subproperty of contentLocation intended primarily for more technical and detailed materials. For example with a Dataset, it indicates areas that the dataset describes: a dataset of New York weather would have spatialCoverage which was the place: the state of New York.

Indicates sections of a Web page that are particularly 'speakable' in the sense of being highlighted as being especially appropriate for text-to-speech conversion. Other sections of a page may also be usefully spoken in particular circumstances; the 'speakable' property serves to indicate the parts most likely to be generally useful for speech. The *speakable* property can be repeated an arbitrary number of times, with three kinds of possible 'content-locator' values: 1.) *id-value* URL references - uses *id-value* of an element in the page being annotated. The simplest use of *speakable* has (potentially relative) URL values, referencing identified sections of the document concerned. 2.) CSS Selectors - addresses content in the annotated page, e.g. via class attribute. Use the [cssSelector](https://schema.org/cssSelector) property. 3.) XPaths - addresses content via XPaths (assuming an XML view of the content). Use the [xpath](https://schema.org/xpath) property. For more sophisticated markup of speakable sections beyond simple ID references, either CSS selectors or XPath expressions to pick out document section(s) as speakable. For this we define a supporting type, [SpeakableSpecification](https://schema.org/SpeakableSpecification) which is defined to be a possible value of the *speakable* property.

The temporalCoverage of a CreativeWork indicates the period that the content applies to, i.e. that it describes, either as a DateTime or as a textual string indicating a time period in [ISO 8601 time interval format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601#Time_intervals). In the case of a Dataset it will typically indicate the relevant time period in a precise notation (e.g. for a 2011 census dataset, the year 2011 would be written "2011/2012"). Other forms of content, e.g. ScholarlyArticle, Book, TVSeries or TVEpisode, may indicate their temporalCoverage in broader terms - textually or via well-known URL. Written works such as books may sometimes have precise temporal coverage too, e.g. a work set in 1939 - 1945 can be indicated in ISO 8601 interval format format via "1939/1945". Open-ended date ranges can be written with ".." in place of the end date. For example, "2015-11/.." indicates a range beginning in November 2015 and with no specified final date. This is tentative and might be updated in future when ISO 8601 is officially updated.

A work that is a translation of the content of this work. E.g. 西遊記 has an English workTranslation “Journey to the West”, a German workTranslation “Monkeys Pilgerfahrt” and a Vietnamese translation Tây du ký bình khảo.
