An abstract is a short description that summarizes a [CreativeWork](https://schema.org/CreativeWork).

Indicates a page documenting how licenses can be purchased or otherwise acquired, for the current item.

The item being described is intended to assess the competency or learning outcome defined by the referenced term.

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 ".

Indicates a correction to a [CreativeWork](https://schema.org/CreativeWork), either via a [CorrectionComment](https://schema.org/CorrectionComment), textually or in another document.

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.

An [EIDR](https://eidr.org/) (Entertainment Identifier Registry) [identifier](https://schema.org/identifier) representing a specific edit / edition for a work of film or television. For example, the motion picture known as "Ghostbusters" whose [titleEIDR](https://schema.org/titleEIDR) is "10.5240/7EC7-228A-510A-053E-CBB8-J" has several edits, e.g. "10.5240/1F2A-E1C5-680A-14C6-E76B-I" and "10.5240/8A35-3BEE-6497-5D12-9E4F-3". Since schema.org types like [Movie](https://schema.org/Movie) and [TVEpisode](https://schema.org/TVEpisode) can be used for both works and their multiple expressions, it is possible to use [titleEIDR](https://schema.org/titleEIDR) alone (for a general description), or alongside [editEIDR](https://schema.org/editEIDR) for a more edit-specific description.

The level in terms of progression through an educational or training context. Examples of educational levels include 'beginner', 'intermediate' or 'advanced', and formal sets of level indicators.

The endTime of something. For a reserved event or service (e.g. FoodEstablishmentReservation), the time that it is expected to end. For actions that span a period of time, when the action was performed. E.g. John wrote a book from January to *December*. For media, including audio and video, it's the time offset of the end of a clip within a larger file. Note that Event uses startDate/endDate instead of startTime/endTime, even when describing dates with times. This situation may be clarified in future revisions.

A maintainer of a [Dataset](https://schema.org/Dataset), software package ([SoftwareApplication](https://schema.org/SoftwareApplication)), or other [Project](https://schema.org/Project). A maintainer is a [Person](https://schema.org/Person) or [Organization](https://schema.org/Organization) that manages contributions to, and/or publication of, some (typically complex) artifact. It is common for distributions of software and data to be based on "upstream" sources. When [maintainer](https://schema.org/maintainer) is applied to a specific version of something e.g. a particular version or packaging of a [Dataset](https://schema.org/Dataset), it is always possible that the upstream source has a different maintainer. The [isBasedOn](https://schema.org/isBasedOn) property can be used to indicate such relationships between datasets to make the different maintenance roles clear. Similarly in the case of software, a package may have dedicated maintainers working on integration into software distributions such as Ubuntu, as well as upstream maintainers of the underlying work.

The quantity of the materials being described or an expression of the physical space they occupy.

Indicates the date on which the current structured data was generated / published. Typically used alongside [sdPublisher](https://schema.org/sdPublisher).

A license document that applies to this structured data, typically indicated by URL.

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.

The startTime of something. For a reserved event or service (e.g. FoodEstablishmentReservation), the time that it is expected to start. For actions that span a period of time, when the action was performed. E.g. John wrote a book from *January* to December. For media, including audio and video, it's the time offset of the start of a clip within a larger file. Note that Event uses startDate/endDate instead of startTime/endTime, even when describing dates with times. This situation may be clarified in future revisions.

A CreativeWork or Event about this Thing.

The item being described is intended to help a person learn the competency or learning outcome defined by the referenced term.

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.

The schema.org [usageInfo](https://schema.org/usageInfo) property indicates further information about a [CreativeWork](https://schema.org/CreativeWork). This property is applicable both to works that are freely available and to those that require payment or other transactions. It can reference additional information, e.g. community expectations on preferred linking and citation conventions, as well as purchasing details. For something that can be commercially licensed, usageInfo can provide detailed, resource-specific information about licensing options. This property can be used alongside the license property which indicates license(s) applicable to some piece of content. The usageInfo property can provide information about other licensing options, e.g. acquiring commercial usage rights for an image that is also available under non-commercial creative commons licenses.

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.

Date the content expires and is no longer useful or available. For example a [VideoObject](https://schema.org/VideoObject) or [NewsArticle](https://schema.org/NewsArticle) whose availability or relevance is time-limited, a [ClaimReview](https://schema.org/ClaimReview) fact check whose publisher wants to indicate that it may no longer be relevant (or helpful to highlight) after some date, or a [Certification](https://schema.org/Certification) the validity has expired.

The location where the CreativeWork was created, which may not be the same as the location depicted in the CreativeWork.

Indicates the primary entity described in some page or other CreativeWork.

Indicates a page (or other CreativeWork) for which this thing is the main entity being described. See [background notes](https://schema.org/docs/datamodel.html#mainEntityBackground) for details.

A material that something is made from, e.g. leather, wool, cotton, paper.

Indicates that the CreativeWork contains a reference to, but is not necessarily about a concept.

The name of the item.

An offer to provide this item—for example, an offer to sell a product, rent the DVD of a movie, perform a service, or give away tickets to an event. Use [businessFunction](https://schema.org/businessFunction) to indicate the kind of transaction offered, i.e. sell, lease, etc. This property can also be used to describe a [Demand](https://schema.org/Demand). While this property is listed as expected on a number of common types, it can be used in others. In that case, using a second type, such as Product or a subtype of Product, can clarify the nature of the offer.

Player type required—for example, Flash or Silverlight.

The position of an item in a series or sequence of items.

Indicates a potential Action, which describes an idealized action in which this thing would play an 'object' role.

The person or organization who produced the work (e.g. music album, movie, TV/radio series etc.).

The production company or studio responsible for the item, e.g. series, video game, episode etc.

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.

A publication event associated with the item.

The publisher of the article in question.

The publishing division which published the comic.

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.

The Event where the CreativeWork was recorded. The CreativeWork may capture all or part of the event.

The regions where the media is allowed. If not specified, then it's assumed to be allowed everywhere. Specify the countries in [ISO 3166 format](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166).

The place and time the release was issued, expressed as a PublicationEvent.

Indicates if use of the media require a subscription (either paid or free). Allowed values are `true` or `false` (note that an earlier version had 'yes', 'no').

A review of the item.

Review of the item.

URL of a reference Web page that unambiguously indicates the item's identity. E.g. the URL of the item's Wikipedia page, Wikidata entry, or official website.

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 Organization on whose behalf the creator was working.

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.

A person or organization that supports a thing through a pledge, promise, or financial contribution. E.g. a sponsor of a Medical Study or a corporate sponsor of an event.

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.
