Questions and exclusions

Required questions

  1. Required question 1 (exact ID: question-1)
    Does the public synthesis accurately distinguish evidence, editorial interpretation, normative rules, current status, and unresolved uncertainty?
  2. Required question 2 (exact ID: question-2)
    Are boundaries, decision rules, relationship language, privacy, access, and what-would-change conditions complete and understandable to affected publics?
  3. Required question 3 (exact ID: question-3)
    Do linked records remain the source of entity facts and computed counts without being silently copied, ranked, endorsed, or promoted into stronger evidence?

Explicit exclusions

  • A synthesis review does not approve every linked record, computed count, preview row, or operational code path.
  • Favorable wording review is not legal, medical, engineering, security, partnership, submission, launch, or governance authorization.

Requested controlled scopes: affected-public-rights, information-science, visual-science-communication

Frozen-evidence decision window: 180 days from the packet freeze. Not applicable to this packet family.

Complete primary record set

Every record below has one primary packet owner. Decisions must bind to the exact record and packet fingerprints; a changed lesson body, evidence grade, citation, locator, source snapshot, requirement, policy, release, or commit expires the old packet.

Offline packet and worksheet

Downloads contain no reviewer contact details. Downloading does not create an account or store a review response in the GShips application. Ordinary provider request or analytics logs may record the download request. Work locally: the public site has no review account, upload endpoint, or decision-submission API.

Readable notes companion only—not a decision-bundle equivalent. Use the closed JSON template for structural validation.

Download notes worksheet

Do not paste a completed decision, identity documents, private contact data, confidential conflict evidence, medical information, controlled material, or exploit details into a public form. Until a separately authorized private handoff exists, retain the completed worksheet locally.

Packet schema · JSON · Decision-bundle schema · JSON

Validate offline

Use Node.js 22.13.0 or later. Keep the packet, worksheet, completed decision, and all six kit files together in a local directory.

  1. Download the six kit files below. Complete a copy of the JSON template offline and preserve its templateFingerprint.
  2. Finalize a separate output file.
    node finalize-review-decision.mjs \
  --input DRAFT.json \
  --output COMPLETED.json

    This marks the copy complete and calculates an unkeyed canonical bundle fingerprint. A fingerprint detects changes; it is not a reviewer signature.

  3. Validate the packet and completed copy.
    node check-review-decisions.mjs \
  --packet PACKET.json \
  --decision COMPLETED.json

    Add another --decision for each independent reviewer.

  4. Interpret the result narrowly. A zero exit proves structural consistency only. Neither command appoints or qualifies a reviewer, establishes independence, accepts a decision, or authorizes publication.

Completion criteria

Every primary record must receive the required number of valid, current-fingerprint approvals; every complementary scope group and required domain must be covered; any unresolved revise, contest, or reject disposition blocks publication.

Named medical, reproductive, nuclear, radiation, cybersecurity, governance, and dual-use conclusions require two distinct qualified independent humans covering complementary domain-method and rights/public-interest scopes.

  • Reviewer identity, qualification, independence, conflicts, and compensation must be assessed by accountable human governance; local validation can only report structural validity.
  • Approve, revise, contest, reject, and recuse remain visible. A negative finding cannot be hidden by an aggregate approval percentage.
  • Revision creates a new record and packet fingerprint. Prior approvals do not carry forward automatically.
  • AI may assist with clerical comparison but cannot count as an independent reviewer, identity attestor, appeal authority, or second person.

Assumptions and limits

  • The exact packet, record, source, policy, release, and source-commit fingerprints bound this prepared page; human review has not started.
  • Downloading, local structural validation, or completing notes does not appoint or qualify a reviewer, establish independence, accept a decision, authorize publication, or create a relationship.

What would change this page?

Staffed governance, appointed qualified reviewers, completed record-level decisions, published conflicts, minority findings, corrections, or changed review policy would change this page.
