Publication history

Meaningful changes stay visible.

This changelog tracks corrections, source-status changes, and reader-facing research changes. Routine build noise belongs in technical project history, not here.

2026-10-03 · BTR-2026-008 · Podcast discovery

Podcasts promoted into primary site navigation.

The podcast collection is now a first-class primary and footer section across the site, podcast pages carry the correct active-navigation state, and the homepage hero provides a high-visibility direct route to the audio collection.

2026-09-19 · BTR-2026-001 · Consistency

Counts and release state normalized.

Public counts now come from one canonical content manifest. The Paths count is 13; Movement Directory count is 26; the footer distinguishes reports, topic families, profiles, and sourced pilot dossiers.

2026-09-19 · BTR-2026-002 · Evidence hierarchy

Archive provenance is no longer described as superior to external verification.

The methodology and comparative case language now state that archival reports preserve provenance. Edited publication pages should follow stronger evidence when it conflicts with an archived report, while preserving the original report unchanged.

2026-09-19 · BTR-2026-003 · Citation audit

Legacy source tokens relabeled as unresolved archival references.

The audit found 1,323 markers in 16 of 21 report readers. Because the underlying bibliographic references cannot be reliably reconstructed from those tokens, they are not presented as resolved citations.

2026-09-19 · BTR-2026-004 · Movement dossiers

Algeria and Myanmar moved from short profiles to externally sourced edited dossiers.

The new pages separate actors and phases, add chronology, state response, civilian consequences, aftermath, competing interpretations, limitations, and direct sources.

2026-09-20 · BTR-2026-005 · Claim traceability

Public synthesis claims now route back to reports and qualifications.

Added a 21-family Claim Atlas, a 17-record qualification ledger, machine-readable claim routing, and report-level claim panels. Topic-level report relations remain labeled “informs” unless the preserved internal register contains a more specific support or qualification relation.

2026-10-02 · BTR-2026-006 · Research intake

Research.zip added without double-counting duplicates.

The intake contained 102 files. SHA-256 comparison found 62 exact copies of already-preserved reports and 40 genuinely new reports, bringing the durable project corpus to 122 unique reports. Supported findings were routed into project memory with report-section deep links; public linking is limited to historical/comparative source material while influence-operations and sensitive conflict material remains source-only.

2026-10-02 · BTR-2026-007 · Source traceability

Supplemental sources now expose comparison, contribution, and limitation.

Added a 17-case revolutionary-literature evidence matrix, 23 source-to-context research trails, machine-readable source archive metadata, and source-level contribution/caveat panels. Contextual routes remain distinct from formal support or qualification edges.
