Evidence status is an editorial decision.
Records are accepted only when their source, license, method, and limitations can be stated plainly.
Source preference
- Current test publishers and official statistical agencies
- Primary archival records and official APIs
- Professional standards and systematic reviews
- Transparent peer-reviewed research
- Reputable fact checks and expert source-tracing
Wikipedia and Wikidata are discovery and identity tools. Their citations are followed to the original source and independently classified.
Corrections
Substantive changes must update the review date and source trail. Unsupported precision is removed rather than replaced with a preferred guess. A lack of evidence is labeled unknown.
Automation
Code generates calculations, tables, routes, and visual assets from reviewed structured records. Automation does not decide whether a claim is verified and does not create missing IQ values.
