(Material includes manga,manhwa,manhua,OEL,novel,artbook,doujinshi and drama cd)
I am asking how to separate these above materials into porn and not porn?
I already know that if a material is "hentai without borderline h tag" ,it is porn.
But it is not porn if it is "hentai with borderline h".
So all "hentai without borderline h tag" are porn.
So are all other material in mangaupdates not porn?

I guess you meant "So are all other material without Borderline H tag not porn?". By the way, didn't you ask related questions before? Well, whatever.
You're basically right if you include Yaoi and Yuri which can be porn with homosexual pairings.
However depending on your definition of porn, you'll also find non-pornographic material among Yaoi, Yuri and Borderline H series. For instance I would consider neither Est Em's one-shot Carmen nor ASANO Inio's Umibe no Onnanoko to be porn although they're classified as Yaoi and Borderline H respectively because their graphic content is not the story's main focus.
Then again, there's material (both Hentai and non-Hentai titles) categorised as "Porn with Plot" like Nozoki Ana by HONNA Wakou.
So I suppose you'll have to judge each work from the twilight zone at your own discretion.
If you're interested in the more subtle distinctions, take a look at the following threads:
Is Borderline Hentai really Borderline?
Yaoi is Porn? (same goes for Yuri)

I've also noticed that you've posted a lot of related questions about what is porn and what isn't. I was just wondering why this is so important to you.

I don't consider material with borderline h as porn even though they are hentai.

You seem to have made quite a few of these topics where you ask some random question that I can't make any sense out of.
