What the competition is
The organiser’s programme separates sports, disciplines and medal events. A national delegation participates across many contests, so a country name or Games logo does not identify one fixture. Team-event rounds and individual qualifying sessions require their own labels. Japan’s host calendar should also be kept separate from the programme of another Asian championship.
Following the competition
For archive navigation, retain the sport, event and original date. A medal-table total answers a different question from the result of one match. If a replay is listed, distinguish its new programme time from the historical competition start. Keep the edition year visible so footage from another Asian Games is not accidentally substituted.
