Trust methodology

Every useful claim needs a trail.

We distinguish a reachable official source from a claim that has been deeply reviewed. That distinction remains visible everywhere.

Source-linked

The official source is attached.

Core fields passed automated validation. This is not a claim of human review and these pages remain non-indexable until sufficiently complete.

Verified

The evidence has been reviewed.

Costs, support, restrictive eligibility, deadline and source health have been checked against published evidence.

  1. 01

    Find the organizer-controlled or funder-controlled source.

  2. 02

    Capture the page, retrieval time and material claims.

  3. 03

    Normalize dates, currencies, support, costs and eligibility without filling gaps.

  4. 04

    Validate URLs, contradictions, duplicate cycles and deadline time zones.

  5. 05

    Publish passing records as Source-linked.

  6. 06

    Promote to Verified only after evidence review and freshness checks.

Corrections policy

Sources change. We show the change.

Material deadline, funding, eligibility and URL changes are recorded and rechecked. Artists and organizers can report an error from a dossier. Corrections update the public record; they do not erase the verification history.
