How Source Checks and Fact Review Work at 420.place
1. Build a risk-based queue
Articles are prioritized by subject risk, age, source state, legal or medical change signals, and whether a prior review receipt exists.
2. Check sources without overstating the result
A successful request shows that a page responded; it does not prove that the page still supports the claim. Timeouts, access limits, and TLS failures are indeterminate. Replacement sources must be checked for claim equivalence.
3. Map material claims
For each changed high-risk claim, the evidence record identifies jurisdiction, effective date, supporting source, and whether support is direct, partial, contradicted, unverified, or indeterminate.
4. Separate review roles
Source retrieval, editing, independent criticism, verification, and release approval are separate responsibilities. Medical or legal specialist review is recorded only when a qualified reviewer and exact-version receipt exist.
5. Publish with evidence and readback
The release is tied to a clean commit, content hash, immutable package hash, explicit target and deletion scope, rollback information, and post-deployment checks.
