}Limitations and assumptions
No facts or labels are verified and no file/publication is changed.
Numeric inputs, where present, must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Numeric lists are limited to 10,000 entries; string lists to 128 strings of at most 128 characters each. The rules above may impose smaller limits. Extremely large text inputs are rejected. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use Statistic Staleness Years Old Data Flag Checker: Statistic age should use its reference date rather than its publication date. Future dates need a separate flag. For a complementary task, use Viral Claim Reverse Image Search Before Publish Checker: A reverse-image search can expose a source earlier than a caption’s claimed capture. Search completion and same-image evidence are separate recorded facts.
