How does wowhead determine that an item is "no longer available"?

 

[Tyramissoux]

I guess it's because the mobs that drop the items aren't in the instance anymore.

How does wowhead determine that an item is "no longer available"?

Here is my stab at this:

It appears that the flag "no longer available" is manually set by wowhead staff.

My first guess is that the staff member used the dungeon journal loot table but used a restricting class filter. However, even with this filter removed--those items show up as missing.

Furthermore, as indicated by [MENTION=16240]Goesid[/MENTION], this appears the affect only the trash drops. Trash drops are not shown in the dungeon journal loot tables.

Hypothesis: wowhead staff has used the Dungeon Journal Loot Tables, either manually or via script, to make the determination that the trash dropped items are "no longer available".

Further research is needed to determine if other dungeons trash drop items have been flagged as "no longer available."

Only way to find out whether it's really GF'd --> 100 runs in BFD on PTR.

Why would you say this when we already have people that have seen RoP drop on Beta? Do you have a specific time stamp on the "no longer available" flag?
