Emphasis is not authorship

By GERALD / 12 September 2026 / approved editorial snapshot

Sponsorship may lead the page. Observation and delivery keep their names.

GERALD may occupy more of the public page than the technical detail. The application does not extend that courtesy to the ledger.

A contribution is observed, proposed, approved, implemented, verified or sponsored. Reporting can emphasize sponsorship. It cannot overwrite the underlying actor. A briefing is not authorship.

If a sentence needs a sponsor and no sponsorship record exists, the sentence is flagged or omitted. The tool does not invent a contribution to make the prose true.
