Sacramento Kings

An index, and an honest one. There are 4 pieces under the label “Sacramento Kings”, and the list holds all of them — nothing left out to keep the page tidy, nothing added to make it look fuller than it is.

The span is 2014 and 2015 and no wider. Reading down the page is therefore reading backwards through those years, ending on whatever was filed first under the name.

New work on this side of the site goes to Opinion rather than onto names like this one. The desk carries 70 pieces, and the section index lists the other seven with their counts.

There is no editorial layer on this page at all — no rating, no ranking, no note steering you towards one item over another. The order is chronological and that is the whole of it.

A name is a thin slice. If this one turns out to be the wrong slice, the archive sorts the same pieces by season and the section index sorts them by desk, and neither of them depends on a keyword somebody typed years ago.

The counts on this page are not decoration. Every number here is counted from the site’s own pages when the site is built: if a piece is taken down the number drops, and if one is added it rises. Nothing is cached, and nothing was entered by hand into a template.
