title Factor

Pipe Separator

Whether the title contains a pipe character (|). Pipes are commonly used to separate the headline from a category or channel-style suffix.

Pipes are a news/branding convention rather than a content signal. They tend to appear on professionally-managed channels and may correlate with production-tier as a side effect rather than driving reach themselves. Effect is usually small.
