Reading a Taobao sourcing shortlist before comparing prices For readers using the Taobao/Tmall tool in this listing, the existing sourcing notes offer a small review checklist: • Check the translated search query and open the original listings. Similar search terms can return different sizes, quantities or bundles. • Keep the reported currency beside each price. Check the variant, order unit, shipping, taxes and destination before comparing two offers. • Keep an unavailable price separate from a genuine zero. A missing platform or row in a formatted shortlist needs inspection of the original data; it is not evidence of zero supply or demand. • Treat reported sales as a source-specific observation, not a shared reporting period or a forecast of what you will sell. Existing notes: https://github.com/LMSlay/tubetext-examples/blob/main/n8n/README.md#product-sourcing-taobao-aliexpress-and-tiktok-shop-shortlists The linked n8n template is a separate workflow, not the output format of this MCP connector. Its documented formatter groups successful listings by platform and currency, skips error-marked rows, and performs no currency conversion. It does not match identical SKUs across marketplaces or calculate landed cost or resale margin. Keep the original exports when you need details omitted by that summary. Disclosure: I maintain TubeText; this note was prepared with AI assistance. It is freely readable and can be used to review already permitted exports manually. I have not run the workflow or tested this connector for this post. Using the linked Actors or connected services can incur charges; check their current pricing before any new collection. Only retain or share material you are permitted to use. TubeText is not affiliated with Taobao, Tmall or n8n.
Keeping a WeChat article source note usable For readers working with WeChat articles in this listing, the existing source-record guide separates three things: the text reviewed, attribution and dates, and remote image references. • Keep the account name, author line and publication date separate. Leave missing values unknown rather than filling them with the account name or the day you saved the note. • Label translations and English summaries as derivatives, with the original wording kept where permitted. • A Markdown image link does not store the image bytes. Mark remote-only or unchecked images, especially when a chart matters to the claim. • An unavailable source link alone does not prove deletion. Do not publish access-bearing URL parameters or bypass access controls to recover it. Existing guide: https://github.com/LMSlay/tubetext-examples/blob/main/recipes/wechat-article-source-notes.md Disclosure: I maintain TubeText; this note was prepared with AI assistance. The guide is based on documentation captured on 24 October 2026 and is a static reading checklist, not an offline archive, current-schema guarantee or live MCP/Actor test. These note categories are not extra output fields. You can use it with material you are already permitted to read, without a new run. Optional extraction and AI processing can incur charges; check current pricing before using them.

Bilibili source notes: speech, reactions and three different clocks A small manual checklist for readers working with Bilibili material in this listing: • Label spoken-word transcripts, danmaku, page comments and your own interpretation separately. Text over the video is not automatically something the speaker said. • Keep the identified video/part with its playback position. A position such as 01:20 is not a calendar publication date. • Record an item's publication time and your observation time separately, only when known. Do not guess an unexplained unit or use a missing date as zero. • Preserve discovery and transcript exports separately. A nearby reaction does not establish alignment with a transcript passage or an independent viewer count. The existing guide includes an invented two-row handoff example: https://github.com/LMSlay/tubetext-examples/blob/main/recipes/bilibili-reaction-source-and-time-notes.md Disclosure: I maintain TubeText; this post was prepared with AI assistance. The guide is freely readable, starts with small manual notes and is not a live MCP/Actor test, a timing-accuracy claim or proof of connector health. No new run is required to use the checklist. The linked Actors are separate paid services; check current documentation and pricing only if new retrieval is needed. Use only material you are permitted to retain and do not republish private viewer details.
