Evidence boundary

Preserved is not
the same as proven.

01 Source descriptions and embedded posts reflect their original publishers' claims; this site does not treat those claims as independently verified facts.

02 Each source has one primary category, a source role, an evidence-review state, and a separate political-context assessment. Category totals count source records. Dossier measurements retain their stated dates, locations, and definitions.

03 Canonical media remains in the private archive. Playback uses an approved hosted derivative when a catalog URL is present and otherwise falls back to the submitted source post.

04 Transcripts and analyses are machine-generated. Agent editorial review is labeled separately; human review has not been completed for those records.
