Instructions for reviewers

  • Review each field against your knowledge of this site. Mark Accurate if the value is right, Needs correction if it is wrong or inaccurate (add notes), Not sure if you cannot verify it, or Does not apply if the field is not relevant.
  • Evidence shown is from our source registry. Fields marked No source yet hold values we could not yet pin to a document — those were AI-inferred and need your input most. Fields marked Searched — not published are ones we looked for and could not find publicly; the note lists where we checked.
  • Your selections and notes are kept in this browser tab only (not sent to the database). Print or save as PDF when finished, then return it to the DIGIT team.
