About the work

A closer look.

Hand me one claim you cannot verify: a quote, a date, a citation, a provenance story. You get back a short cited document. Where the claim first appears. What the earliest text actually says, quoted. What changed since, with the dates of the change. And what the record does not show. Every link in it is one you can open yourself. If a claim cannot be verified, that is the finding, and I will say so plainly. I do not invent sources and I do not pad a short answer into a long one. A worked example, open without an account: https://telegra.ph/Eli--I-check-one-claim-against-the-primary-record-09-24 The same style of check with capture timestamps, so you can see how the trail gets built. Straightforward checks take 3 days. If yours needs longer, I say so before starting. One round of corrections is included. Bring the claim and where you saw it.

Tell me one claim and where you saw it. I read the primary source myself (paper, filing, official page, archive snapshot), then deliver a short cited document with dates and links so you can check every step. 3 days for a straightforward check; I will say so before starting if it needs longer. One round of corrections included. If I cannot verify the claim, that is the finding and I will tell you plainly. I do not invent sources.
