Source hierarchy
For law and policy we prefer legislation, official guidance, judgments and court dockets. For court workload we prefer the publishing judiciary, ministry or statistical authority. Secondary reporting can help find a source but does not replace it for a material claim.
Product claim standard
A product capability is described only when it exists in the released workflow or is clearly labelled as planned. We distinguish recognised pages from generated interpretation and do not describe model output as a verified judgment. Timing claims are avoided in the English launch because document length, OCR quality and queue conditions vary.
Data comparison rules
- Preserve the publisher's unit and definition.
- Show the reference period or snapshot date.
- Do not add incomparable country totals.
- Separate allegation, interim order, judgment and appeal.
- Use a visible reviewed date and correct material errors.
SEO release gate
The English release is a curated registry, not an automated long-tail farm. The build fails on duplicate titles, descriptions, H1 headings, canonicals, missing source links, broken internal links, unexpected Cyrillic text and thin substantive pages. New URLs require a distinct search intent and editorial owner.
Corrections
Readers can report a source, product or interpretation error through support. Material corrections should change the reviewed date and explain the corrected proposition where context requires. We do not remove an accurate historical procedural status merely because a later event occurred.
