Record Audit

Source basis and classification review

Source basis
1 linked public source: Government release.
Classification rationale
Category "OCR complaint" is retained as a documentation label from linked public source metadata; Campus Evidence Lab does not treat it as an independent legal finding.
Community rationale
Affected community labels (Jewish, Palestinian, Muslim, Arab) reflect public-source metadata and require source-text review before narrower claims.
Confidence rationale
Medium confidence reflects verified from public source with 1 linked public source (Government release); it is not a severity or truth score.
Field Source support Review note
Category What's New in OCR The category is supported by linked source metadata including What's New in OCR.
Affected communities What's New in OCR Affected-community labels are retained from public-source metadata and should be checked against source text before reuse.
Confidence What's New in OCR Confidence is based on verification status and source support rather than severity, prevalence, or legal truth.
Institutional response What's New in OCR Response-depth classification is "agency_described_institutional_action" based on the stored public response text.
