Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Datong as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Datong, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement — two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.
