Evidence and provenance
كيف places archival description beside source evidence so visitors can see what is known, what is inferred, and what still remains open to review before a detail is accepted into the public page.
Details
Records may carry archive names, donor notes, publication references, collection membership, media provenance, OCR evidence, or editorial observations. The exact trail varies from asset to asset and from identity page to identity page.
Context
Some records have direct provenance, while others are linked through visible text, captions, reviewed relationships, or historical context. كيف does not turn inference into settled fact without review.
Connections
Source notes appear across record details, collections, search results, and related-record modules so visitors can move from a record into the evidence that supports it.
Object trail
Asset records remain object-first: inspect the media, title, dates, source notes, and reviewed regions before following the wider graph.
Identity trail
Identity records stay identity-first. Names, roles, places, and relationships may carry different levels of certainty across languages and sources.
Curatorial trail
Categories classify and collections curate paths. They deepen discovery, but they do not replace the underlying asset, identity, or collection path you are actually reading.
Gather archive metadata, visible media evidence, and source notes without merging uncertain claims into settled record descriptions.
Link records to people, places, events, categories, and collections while preserving the record type behind each relationship.
Review uncertain descriptions, bilingual labels, and AI suggestions before promoting them into archive records.
