Review status
The addition of a research page or richer automated report does not mean a person has reviewed its conclusions. Generated reports and studies begin with human review pending. A current review requires a named reviewer, a real review date, and a match to that content's revision. No personal sign-off is claimed by this update entry.
Corrections
Data refreshes change rankings when new results arrive. A substantive correction or model change needs its own explanation of what changed and why. Use the contact page to report a specific issue, and see the publishing standards for the review and correction process.
