Extracts competition news, contestant highlights, and announcements from the NTD International Classical Chinese Dance Competition website — the world's only globally-televised classical Chinese dance competition, held biennially in New York since 2007.
What it does
Connects to the competitions.ntdtv.com WordPress REST API and collects posts and pages across three language variants:
- Traditional Chinese (zh-hant) — competition news and dancer spotlights
- Simplified Chinese (zh-hans) — competition news and media coverage
- English — dance section static pages (rules, registration, history)
Each record includes the post title, publication date, category label, body HTML and text, winner/rank extraction (where available), division, and a link back to the source article on ntdtv.com or epochtimes.com.
