PUBLIC TRACE JOURNAL / 12
Editorial principles
Precise claims, openness to objections and respect for authorship.
Text explanation of the comic
People discuss evidence around a table: editorial rules support checking and reasoned disagreement.
Distinguish facts, testimony, hypotheses, reconstruction and scenarios. Disclose AI involvement, sources and limitations. Conceptual scenes are not documentary events.
Preserve authorship, consider reasoned objections and correct substantive errors. Partnerships and results require evidence.
