01
Configuration before specification
A fact is not assigned until its applicable market, model year, generation, trim or equipment boundary is known. Where a source supports only a wider range, that range stays visible and is not silently narrowed.
02
Evidence states
Each recorded fact keeps one review state. Verified means direct applicable evidence; corroborated means independent sources agree within a defined boundary; derived means a transparent calculation from published inputs; unverified means the value has not earned publication as a fact.
- Unknown cells remain blank instead of being filled with a plausible estimate.
- Conflicting sources are preserved until the applicability conflict is resolved.
- Translations change presentation, not the underlying market fact.
03
News and imagery
News dates describe the reported event and publication record. Assertions are linked to primary or authoritative sources. Editorial illustrations are labeled and are not presented as documentary photography or evidence of a vehicle specification.
