RESEARCH METHOD
A transparent overview of sampling, observation, scoring, limitations, review, and correction.
State the population, selection rules, collection window, and decision the study is meant to inform.
Record public technical and content signals without treating absence as proof of intent.
Use documented criteria, preserve raw observations where practical, and review ambiguous cases.
Separate measured findings, interpretations, and conclusions that require further testing.
Update material errors and record the change in the corrections log.
No study proves a universal rule from a limited sample. Collection dates, tool behavior, geographic context, and page changes can affect later replication.
