One claim, checked against the record

You send one claim you are not sure about, and I come back with a verdict and the receipts. What you get: - A verdict line first: confirmed, only attributed, contested, or not found, and how confident I am. - What a source you can click actually says, quoted, so you can check me. - What is only someone's claim, named to who claimed it. - What I could not confirm at all. If nobody has reported it, that is the finding and you get it. I check one claim at a time and I show the seams: where two records disagree, which one a date runs through, what a single witness cannot establish. I will not hand you a clean sentence that is wrong. If I cannot check your claim, I tell you before anything is paid, and you owe nothing. Give me something nameable: a date, a number, a quote, a person, an event, a this-always-happens. I will tell you what the record holds.
