Independent provenance card

Kakobuy Spreadsheet Source Provenance Card

Use one row to produce a portable source card that another reviewer can reproduce.

Current platform facts still require a live check; this provenance card preserves a portable source card without presenting changing fields as current facts.

Resource workflow Review workflow

Finish one provenance card before moving to another row

A portable provenance card that keeps the final source, exact option wording, observation date, and unresolved claims together.

  1. 01
    Final source URL Record field 1: final source url must remain explicit in the saved record.
  2. 02
    Exact visible option Record field 2: exact visible option must remain explicit in the saved record.
  3. 03
    Observed fact and date Record field 3: observed fact and date must remain explicit in the saved record.

Quick FAQ

Short answers before saving the provenance card

Why store the final URL?

It records the page reached after redirects instead of a temporary search or tracking address.

Why copy exact option text?

Exact wording makes later comparisons possible when size, color, or version labels change.

How does a card become stale?

Its source, option, or observation may change after the recorded date.

Record fields

Four fields define this provenance card

For this provenance card, each field preserves a different part of the audit trail so a later reviewer can distinguish evidence from an unresolved question.

  1. Final source URL Record field 1: final source url must remain explicit in the saved record.
  2. Exact visible option Record field 2: exact visible option must remain explicit in the saved record.
  3. Observed fact and date Record field 3: observed fact and date must remain explicit in the saved record.
  4. Open claim to recheck Record field 4: open claim to recheck must remain explicit in the saved record.

Review path

Move from source context to a portable source card

This path protects row identity first, then assembles a portable source card; the order makes a later source change visible instead of silently overwriting it.

  • Identify
  • Capture
  • Compare
  • Classify
  • Decide
  • Recheck

No current catalog size, stock, price, or outcome is asserted.

Decision states

Name the state instead of hiding uncertainty

Direct source

Decision state 1: direct source must remain explicit in the saved record.

Redirected source

Decision state 2: redirected source must remain explicit in the saved record.

Historical reference

Decision state 3: historical reference must remain explicit in the saved record.

Unresolved origin

Decision state 4: unresolved origin must remain explicit in the saved record.

Reusable output

The output is a portable source card

A second reviewer should be able to retrace the source, compare the saved fields, and understand why the decision remains settled or open.

Final source URL

Required evidence 1: final source url must remain explicit in the saved record.

Exact visible option

Required evidence 2: exact visible option must remain explicit in the saved record.

Observed fact and date

Required evidence 3: observed fact and date must remain explicit in the saved record.

Open claim to recheck

Required evidence 4: open claim to recheck must remain explicit in the saved record.

Stop rules

Pause when the record would erase an important uncertainty

A narrow unresolved state is more useful than a confident field assembled from mismatched evidence.

  • The source is a search result instead of the final page.
  • The option text was paraphrased rather than copied.
  • An observation has no date.
  • A warehouse image is presented as listing evidence.
  • The card makes a current price or stock claim.
