News

Recent artist milestones formatted as news items. Each row carries a summaryTemplate (with :placeholder tokens) plus summaryData (token values) and metadata (entity ids for deep-linking). Items are selected from the last ARTIST_NEWS_DAYS_AGO days with importance stars >= ceil(weight/2). subType indicates the underlying event kind (album, track, chart, playlist, artist) — summaryData/metadata shapes vary accordingly (kept permissive).
