Status is not a substitute for evidence.

Proposed public work is evaluated for source provenance, method and evidence status, disclosure limits, limitations, review metadata, correction routing, and any effect on canonical or amendment-controlled material.

Corrections + review

Research records remain reviewable.

Good-faith evidence-based criticism is welcome. Material corrections and supersession should be visible, versioned, and routed without silently changing the canonical record.
