This post says "*" but don't know if we changed it later:

I'm fine with either, just want to update the header spec.
Yes, it was changed (sometime in January 2019) when we realized that * was unfortunate because the third party were sorted before LEGO parts in a given category! That's why | was used. Unfortunately I find nothing about that on the forum.

Cool. Thanks. I'll update the spec.

Also, that same post says that the description should be "Third Party - <description>"

I think most of the discussion was done on PT, that's why I can't find it again. "Third Party" was dropped because | prefix just meant that, it needlessly lengthened description and made it illegible.
