Method
How information moves through Townstoria
The public explanation mirrors the evidence-first architecture instead of presenting Townstoria as a black box.
Check configured public sources on bounded schedules while respecting source-specific collection rules.
Keep source-backed evidence internally so later facts and changes remain traceable.
Normalize dates, locations, organizations and other supported fields without inventing missing values.
Separate meaningful local changes from routine source checks and evidence refreshes.
Determine which configured communities and jurisdictions the record applies to.
Where review is required, keep the item internal until the applicable review or publication action occurs.
Only public-ready projections can appear on resident pages, with source attribution and verification timing.
Public item pages expose safe provenance, review state, AI disclosure state and change history when supported.
Trust policy
Facts first. AI disclosed.
The source remains the evidence.
Townstoria can structure, compare and explain source-backed information, but the public transparency layer keeps the original publisher link visible so residents can inspect the evidence themselves.
Missing provenance is not guessed.
If an item does not contain an explicit human-review or AI-use record, Townstoria says that record is unavailable. It does not turn publication status or missing metadata into a stronger claim.
