Editorial standard

Useful knowledge needs visible limits.

IRELCO knowledge notes distinguish observation from verification, describe the role of human review and avoid presenting technical analysis as legal or regulatory authority.

Sources

Retain provenance

Identify where important information came from and when it was observed.

Language

Avoid false certainty

Use words such as signal, lead and potential match until qualified review establishes more.

Responsibility

Name the reviewer

Consequential decisions require an authorised human owner and a recorded rationale.
