Reading key: fact, interpretation, evidence, and uncertainty

Record factCatalog or archival metadata presented as a record claim with source visibility where available.

Source interpretationAn interpretation attributed to a cited source; it is not silently converted into object fact.

AEU editorial mappingA normalization or navigation relationship created by AEU; useful for discovery, not a source claim by itself.

Partial / contestedIncompleteness, uncertainty, or disagreement remains visible rather than being flattened into certainty.

Artist record / evidence-aware
