An article should be inspectable

Each chapter has a stable identifier, revision, author, sources, and editorial status. The site is generated from text files and built into static pages, so the public edition can be regenerated from a known revision.

Corrections should be additive to a visible changelog rather than silently erasing the history of claims.

Review before publishing

  • Editorial review: language, readability, original authorship, citation completeness.
  • Technical review: check derivations, units, assumptions, and sources.
  • Reproduction review: where experiments exist, independently examine documented evidence.
  • Rights and export review: classify attachments separately from prose before publication.
  • Release approval: freeze the edition and record its exact Git commit.

Trust is earned chapter by chapter

A chapter marked draft is not represented as independently validated. Each article can later be promoted to reviewed status when evidence and reviewer records justify it.
