Evidence maintenance

Revision policy

Product generations are separated only when explicit identity evidence supports the split.

Revision scope

Color and size variants normally collapse into one product. Generations split only when manufacturer SKUs, GTINs, explicit years, or separate source product identifiers distinguish them. Review date alone never assigns a review to a generation.

Model-family labels

If a source pools reviews across revisions that cannot be separated honestly, the aggregate is labeled model-family evidence. The label is carried through HTML, Markdown, and structured data.

Corrections

Confirmed match, source, or corpus changes invalidate the affected synthesis. The product is regenerated from the corrected projection and must pass privacy and evidence gates before publication.

Freshness

Pages disclose ingestion and synthesis dates. Prices are indexed observations, not live offers. Scheduled refresh is intentionally deferred until the fixed proof has been validated with buyers.
