Description
Compare sourceEdition with authorizedEdition literally and return age plus reviewPeriod minus age as reviewMargin.
Cultural and community records can carry access, attribution, quotation, and publication permissions. Preserving a supplied label does not create permission or override community protocols, source conditions, or an individual's stated preferences.
Compare sourceEdition with authorizedEdition literally and return age plus reviewPeriod minus age as reviewMargin.
When to use this tool
Use Authorized Source Review Period Gap when you need to record a supplied attribution or access statement without expanding its scope.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter sourceEdition, authorizedEdition, reviewedAt, evaluationAt, suppliedReviewPeriod. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read editionMatches, age, reviewMargin. Inspect editionMatches before interpreting the associated values.
Require evaluationAt no earlier than reviewedAt and nonnegative suppliedReviewPeriod. Compare sourceEdition with authorizedEdition literally and return age plus reviewPeriod minus age as reviewMargin.1

}Limitations and assumptions
- Time values share one coordinate and unit; edition match and a nonnegative margin do not establish current permission or community approval.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Confirm the original permission, community protocol, and intended use with the responsible people before sharing material.
