NOV stands for _News Overview_ and is a header/database format for newsreaders
to process data in the NNTP articles. This format was developed by Geoff Collyer
and is now a defacto standard for NNTP newsreaders - including Gnus.

You can read more about the NOV format and headers at:

    No. NOV is NOT described in the info node you mentioned (at least on my
    install, which is gnus v5.11). Please check before posting. A *reference* is
    made to NOV headers - but as the OP pointed out, no definition of *what* NOV
    headers are is not provided.
