Fictional structural fixture · no real sources or identifiers
A source can enter review without entering the evidence base.
This demonstration separates discovery, identity, classification, transcription, deduplication, and editorial routing before any source could inform a claim.
Intake path
Five gates keep discovery from becoming evidence.
- 01
Discover
Record a lead and its channel.
- 02
Classify
Name the source class without rating it.
- 03
Normalize
Prepare a fixture identifier for matching.
- 04
Deduplicate
Preserve exact, ambiguous, and no-match outcomes.
- 05
Route
Send the record to human review.
Fixture intake record
One lead, described without a verdict.

Source classes
A class describes provenance, not credibility.
Primary records
Paper, registry, and regulator metadata retain their own limitations.
Organization material
Can establish what an organization says, not whether it is true.
Secondary context
Can orient reporting while primary support remains separate.
Social discovery
Can trigger investigation and can never independently support a medical claim.
Append-only history
Review adds events; it does not erase observations.
- ObservedFixture lead recorded with discovery channel.
- Duplicate candidateNormalized fixture identity matched an existing record.
- Needs reviewA human reason is retained before any downstream use.
Honest states
Missing and unresolved values stay visible.
New
Not yet matched.
Duplicate
Possible repeated identity.
Ambiguous
More than one candidate.
No match
No canonical identity found.
Unavailable
Cannot currently be checked.
Stale
A dated recheck is due.
Corrected
Earlier identity stays in history.
Rejected
Not promoted downstream.
