THE EVIDENCE BEHIND THE GUIDE

Sources, with their boundaries.

Primary documentation for mechanisms, historic papers for original designs, and independent research for broader risk. All explanations and diagrams on this site are original.

References are linked for verification. Their authors do not endorse this guide. No third-party illustrations, screenshots, footage, transcripts, or logos are reproduced. Linking a reference does not assert a commercial reuse license for the source itself.

Checked dates record our review of the linked material. Publication dates are reported only where established; undated and continuously updated documentation is labelled accordingly. Citations on individual pages identify the relevant source at the point of use.
