About this dataset
Incidents are sourced from WNBA news coverage across 7 RSS feeds. Each article is analyzed by Claude (claude-sonnet-4-6) which extracts structured incident data and assigns a confidence score. High-confidence incidents (≥78%) are published automatically. Lower-confidence finds enter an admin review queue.
Referee names are extracted from the officiating-controversy coverage itself — articles reporting disputed calls frequently name the crew chief, referee, or umpire involved. Where no official is named, ref fields are left blank rather than guessed.
This database is not affiliated with the WNBA or NBA. All incident descriptions are sourced from published news articles.
