Are these "-available" keywords appropriate? (e.g., "unrated-version-available")
It seems to me that these keywords are improper, since they don't really describe the film. Plus, similar keywords like "available-on-dvd" and "not-on-dvd" have previously been deleted and blocked.
Should these keywords be deleted and blocked as well?
director's-cut-available (10 titles)
deleted-scenes-available (1 title)
unrated-version-available (8 titles)
restored-version-available (5 titles)
colorized-version-available (1 title)
category-audio-only-version-also-available (12 titles)
spanish-language-version-available (1 title)

If I were to look at this from a purely semantic angle, I could see "exists" being a more suitable word than "available", but still remains the problem of using keywords to describe something other than the content of the work itself but the circumstances of its relationship with the overall world of media.

Most if not all of these seems to be information that belongs to the Alternate versions section. Therefore, they should not be added as keywords.

Hi @keyword_expert -
I would have to agree with @Pencho15 & @jeorj_euler , the keywords are being used to describe something other than the content of the work itself and would be better as part of Alternate Versions. So I have deleted and blocked.
Cheers!

It occurs to me that category-audio-only-version-also-available may have been used by @jay_spirit following this thread.
I still think even that one is not a valid keyword. If we allowed keywords that direct users to other titles like these do, there would be quite a lot of possible keywords. But I would be curious to hear any defense of this or any other keyword(s) on my list.
