One row per external endpoint a dataset can be got or seen through that the release cannot measure itself — a CoastWatch mirror, the EDI or NCEI record the ingest read from, the OBIS dataset and its IPT resource, a legacy ERDDAP id with its sunset — with kind, portal, id, url, title, status (current | superseded | retired | external | planned), superseded_by (a URL or a dataset_key), observed_utc (when the status was last confirmed; observe_distributions() will refresh it) and notes. Nothing is ever deleted from it: a dead endpoint becomes retired with the date, so a page can say "was at X until …". Every vocabulary column is validated; an unknown value errors.
