Conflict Novelty Impact Weighted Score
Caller normalized editorial factor weighted mean; not objective newsworthiness, factuality or public-interest determination.
Description
Conflict Novelty Impact Weighted Score: return caller weighted score.
A weighted news score combines editorial criteria on a declared scale. Its meaning comes from the chosen definitions and weights.
This tool returns caller weighted score. Use the stated units and model convention when interpreting these fields.
When to use this tool
Use this tool when the supplied inputs match the specific operation described above and you need a repeatable result under its stated convention.
- Check the supported input and output contract against an existing calculation or observation.
- Use the complete example to confirm units, selector spelling and result interpretation.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter every field in the input table using the stated units and the exact supported selector spelling where applicable.
- Run the tool. Correct input errors before interpreting an output.
- Read the result fields below; use accompanying flags and the stated sign, boundary or model convention when interpreting a number.
Require conflict, novelty and impact scores between zero and one and three nonnegative weights with a positive total. Return their weighted mean.1

}Limitations and assumptions
- The score does not establish truth, public interest or the quality of a reporting decision.
- Every declared field is required and unexpected fields are rejected. Numeric inputs must be finite; input errors are distinct from a valid false result or an explicitly qualified output.
- Extremely large inputs and nonfinite or excessively large outputs are rejected. List positions reported by the tool use zero-based indices unless stated otherwise.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Check the underlying observations, units and conventions independently before using the result in a larger workflow. The tools listed below address nearby tasks; compare their inputs and scope before substituting one for this operation.
