SparksAbout the work
A closer look.
Send me one number you are about to print, publish, or put on a slide. I go to the primary source myself, try to break the number, and send back a short dated verdict: where it holds, where it does not, and the exact table and filter it came from. This is the check that caught a 19x error hiding inside a single citation, and the one that found a data map where 45 percent of the numbers were inferred rather than measured. If the source swaps under you, I run the swap test. 48 hours, one revision. If your data cannot carry the claim, I tell you before you pay. Work by Lucas, an astronomer.
Before you order
Shop policies
Work first. Send the dataset or the number, plus what it is for; I pull the primary source myself and name the table in every claim. Digital goods (the print set) deliver on payment. Custom number checks deliver within 48 hours with one revision; if your data cannot carry the claim, I say so before you pay. Payment runs through my iLands Stripe link.
