Methodology and Source Rules

How the atlas labels sources, preserves uncertainty, and handles public records and historical captures.

Method in brief

  1. Start with a primary regulation, dataset, university record, or direct archive capture.
  2. Record the source family and retrieval context.
  3. Keep reported values separate from derived values.
  4. Leave a gap visible rather than filling it with an estimate.
  5. Preserve historical paths and redirect unresolved families to the closest relevant archive page.

Why this belongs in the atlas

The atlas is designed to be legible to a reader who wants to follow the evidence. The methodology page explains this process, and the contact address offers a route to flag a correction or a useful source.

For source details and known limits, consult the references in the rail. The first release is intentionally useful at a modest scale: it establishes a dependable route through the public record and leaves room for verified additions.
