INDEX METHOD

A finding aid, not a search engine ranking.

Results stay in editorial order. The index does not infer importance, popularity, trustworthiness or legal effect from a match.

01 / TYPE

Know what you opened.

Every result identifies whether it is a topic desk, source profile, timeline event or editorial cluster.

02 / EVIDENCE

See what has a source.

“Awaiting coverage” describes an empty taxonomy desk. It is never padded with a placeholder article.

03 / STATUS

Read the source profile.

A result can help you find a record, but its source page and pinpoint explain the legal-status boundary.
