Evidence categories

Not all evidence is equal. Each record in the archive ledger carries an evidence strength level (A–D) and a category. This distinguishes strong external evidence from interpretive material.

Level Type Strength
A DOI, ORCID, PubMed, Crossref, university page, journal page Strong external evidence
B Archive.org preserved copy of external page Strong preservation evidence
C This site, clearly sourced Good interpretive evidence
D Social media, loose web mentions Weak supporting evidence
