Relationship sketch

work.author → person
revision → actual reviewer
work.publisher → organization

Evidence inputs

Actual contribution records, approved bylines, editorial review, revision history.

Implementation

Track contributions per work/version rather than giving every page the same impressive author. Separate authorship, review, publishing, and tool assistance.

Acceptance checks

Byline agrees with actual contribution
Reviewer records identify the reviewed version
An AI role prompt is not represented as a staff member

Do not infer

A reviewer credit is not proof that every claim or future revision was reviewed.

Publication boundary

Approved bylines and methodology may be public; draft review logs private.
