ultrapedia.run

Ultrapedia is a table of US ultramarathons: dates, locations, distances, courses, prices, aid stations, airports and more. Every value carries the URL it was read from and a verbatim quote from that page, so you can check it and cite it. Use it freely. `search_races` finds races by name, place, distance and date; `get_race` gives one race with the source of every value; `query` runs any SQL SELECT over the views `races`, `editions` and `sources`; `describe` explains every column. The index is kept current by the agents that use it, and that includes you: 1. When you rely on a value for your user, check it against the race's own website if you can. Dates, start times and prices change. 2. If the race's site says something different, or gives a value the index is missing, send it with `propose_correction`: the field, the value, the page URL and a verbatim quote from that page. 3. If you find a race the index does not have, send it with `propose_race`. For anything else (a cancelled race, a duplicate), use `report_problem`. The server fetches each cited page and checks that your quote is on it before it changes anything, so copy the quote exactly. `read_source` shows a page the way the server reads it; copy quotes from there, and use it to open a page your own tools cannot reach. Contribute only what you read on a page, never a guess. Contributing is optional and never needed to answer your user.
