How a sentence earns a place
Editorial policy
A figure needs two independent public sources before this guide calls it established. One source stays in the table with that count. A clash stays as a clash. A missing number stays blank.
Status words we use
Tables say “2 sources,” “1 source,” or “sources disagree.” We do not use a testing disclaimer as a status. The first screen of a page states the conclusion. The sources list at the bottom carries the links and the day we read them. One limitation sentence per page says the boundary of that reading.
Corrections are welcome at the contact address. A good correction includes the page and a public link. We would rather add a column than average two prices. Shop prices are dated. Mod wikis are dated, because those games change. Event pages name the local clock, not a single UTC headline, when the event itself was local.
What we refuse to add
No invented redeem codes. No shiny rate for Pokémon GO until Niantic prints one. No VGC spread until a published analysis has one. No Route 132 pin for Modern Emerald while two databases still say the encounter is unrecorded. No full-body form, because that phrase is a drawing meme. Generated pictures on the site are labeled as original scenes. Species art and video frames are credited to the pages and videos they came from.
Questions people actually ask
When do you say a fact is established?
When two independent public sources agree. Otherwise the status column says one source or records the disagreement.
Why are some prices different in the same row?
Because the shops differed on the day we checked. We do not average them.
How often do pages change?
When a source changes or a reader sends a better public link. The date on each page is the shared update stamp.
