== Principles ==
'''Canonical Question:''' What does a Talk page entry need to contain before it counts as an official Calibration Report, rather than informal discussion?
* Report the '''calibration event''', not only a software-style changelog.
 
* '''Method''' (how reviewed) and '''Standing''' (Self-Assessment vs Confirmed Rating) are different fields.
= Calibration Report Standard Format =
* '''AI round-robin or multi-model agreement does not by itself create Confirmed standing.'''
 
* '''Validation may stay Low''' while structure is frozen — different quality dimensions advance independently.
Not everything written on a Calibration Log or hub Talk page is a Calibration Report. This page defines the required elements that make an entry official — findable, attributable, and usable as part of a page's permanent calibration history.
* Narrative '''once'''; <code>drift_report_status</code> for query visibility — no triple-log into [[Breadcrumb Tracking]].
 
* Conditional sections (Nonconformance, Breadcrumb, Readiness Gap, Fields table): '''omit entirely''' when unused — do not force empty “None” headings (exception: Open Items may explicitly state none / structural-only none where the tier requires the section).
== Required Elements ==
* Minor edit with no claim, rating, or status effect → '''edit summary only''' (no full report).
 
== Heading standard ==
A Calibration Report heading must contain, in this order:
# The literal phrase '''Calibration Report'''
# The exact page name (searchable substring)
# The date in <code>YYYY-MM-DD</code>
Optional annotation in parentheses: report type / tier (e.g. Structural Pre-Cal, Structural Freeze, Confirmation, Ripple-Triggered, Nonconformance).
'''Valid examples:'''
* <code>== Calibration Report — Slave Owner Game/Effects — 2026-07-14 ==</code>
* <code>== Calibration Report — Slave Owner Game/Effects — 2026-07-14 (Structural Freeze) ==</code>
* <code>== Calibration Report — Calibration Report Standard Format — 2026-07-24 (Standard merge) ==</code>
== Calibration procedure types ==

CYCLE Calibration position — Active Development

This page is a conceptual instrument under Permanent Beta. It declares a real calibration position, not a finished product waiting to ship. Checking continues; an edit is only required when evidence demands it. Stage: Seed to Fruit.

Feedback welcome — especially clarity, failure modes, and calibration gaps. Use discussion or Contribute.



Canonical Question: What does a Talk page entry need to contain before it counts as an official Calibration Report, rather than informal discussion?

Calibration Report Standard Format

Not everything written on a Calibration Log or hub Talk page is a Calibration Report. This page defines the required elements that make an entry official — findable, attributable, and usable as permanent calibration history — and the event-centric shape that scales from structural pre-cal to full development freezes. Visible reporting link: Operators file reports on the page’s Talk and/or Calibration Log per Calibration Log: When to Create One; this page only defines shape and minimums.

  • Permanent Beta

Navigation

Principles

  • Report the calibration event, not only a software-style changelog.
  • Method (how reviewed) and Standing (Self-Assessment vs Confirmed Rating) are different fields.
  • AI round-robin or multi-model agreement does not by itself create Confirmed standing.
  • Validation may stay Low while structure is frozen — different quality dimensions advance independently.
  • Narrative once; drift_report_status for query visibility — no triple-log into Breadcrumb Tracking.
  • Conditional sections (Nonconformance, Breadcrumb, Readiness Gap, Fields table): omit entirely when unused — do not force empty “None” headings (exception: Open Items may explicitly state none / structural-only none where the tier requires the section).
  • Minor edit with no claim, rating, or status effect → edit summary only (no full report).

Heading standard

A Calibration Report heading must contain, in this order:

  1. The literal phrase Calibration Report
  2. The exact page name (searchable substring)
  3. The date in YYYY-MM-DD

Optional annotation in parentheses: report type / tier (e.g. Structural Pre-Cal, Structural Freeze, Confirmation, Ripple-Triggered, Nonconformance). Valid examples:

  • == Calibration Report — Slave Owner Game/Effects — 2026-07-14 ==
  • == Calibration Report — Slave Owner Game/Effects — 2026-07-14 (Structural Freeze) ==
  • == Calibration Report — Calibration Report Standard Format — 2026-07-24 (Standard merge) ==

Calibration procedure types

Type Trigger Touches review_date / Last Calibration? Report weight
Pre-Calibration Check (pre-cal) Before content/governance work; structure only Never Light tier (below)
Development Building or revising claims, definitions, structure Yes, when this pass is a real content/governance calibration Full core + contextual as applicable
Confirmation Cycle due / overdue; re-verify without intending content change Yes, when re-verification is performed (including “nothing wrong”) Short confirmation tier — silent “all fine” is not allowed
Ripple-Triggered Upstream Core dependency calibration per dependency rules Per whether content/status actually changed Must cite upstream page and change; weight matches work done

Pre-cal is not a calibration. Confirmation without a short report defeats cycle tracking.

Required event header (all official reports)

Immediately under the heading, use this table (or the same fields in this order as labeled lines if a table is impractical on a given Talk skin):

{| class="wikitable"
! colspan="2" | Calibration event
|-
| '''Page''' || [[Exact page name]]
|-
| '''Date''' || YYYY-MM-DD
|-
| '''Report type / tier''' || Structural pre-cal / Development / Confirmation / Ripple-Triggered / Nonconformance / … 
|-
| '''Calibration objective''' || Why this pass existed (1–2 sentences)
|-
| '''Reviewer''' || Name; AI models + role if any
|-
| '''Method''' || Solo / Round-robin / Challenge review / Checklist-only / Mixed
|-
| '''Standing (this report)''' || Self-Assessment / Confirmed Rating
|-
| '''Standing impact''' || No standing change / … (explicit)
|-
| '''Evidence basis''' || Checklist, template verification, structural inspection, AI challenge (literal draft or summary — state which), manual test, query, …
|}

Summary: one to five sentences on outcome of this event (not a generic page blurb only — on shared hub Talk, include enough page identity to scan).

AI-reviewer attribution (when AI used)

Must state:

  • Which model(s)
  • Whether each reviewed the literal current draft or only a summary
  • Independent parallel vs sequential review

Tiered body elements

Light tier — Structural pre-cal

Required: Heading; event header; Summary; Actions performed (or equivalent); Open Items (may read “None — structural only”); closing line; paired edit summary noting structural-only / dates not advanced. Not required: Full “What this report does NOT claim” unless a grade or governance claim moved; instrument_grade upgrade docs; heavy rationale essays. Forbidden in pre-cal: Changing review_date / Last Updated to a new calibration stamp; rating upgrades.

Full tier — Development (and material freezes)

Always: Heading; event header; Summary; Actions performed; Reasoning / rationale as needed; Open Items; closing line; paired edit summary. When material status or governance decisions: What this report does NOT claim; instrument_grade / validation change docs; Fields before/after table if fields moved. Conditional (omit if unused): Nonconformance block; Development Breadcrumb block; Readiness Gap (“why not advanced”).

Short tier — Confirmation

Required: Heading (annotation Confirmation); event header with objective “re-verify on cycle”; Evidence basis; Standing impact (usually no change or list findings); Open Items; statement that re-verification occurred even if nothing failed; paired edit summary; closing line.

Ripple-Triggered

Same weight as the work done, plus explicit upstream citation (page + change that triggered review).

Edit summary standard

Edit summary and Calibration Report are a paired unit when a full report is required:

  • Summary: scope, version if changed, one-line nature of change, pointer that full report exists on Talk/log
  • Report: permanent detail

Standing rule: Do not create a full official report without its paired edit summary, or an edit summary that claims a full calibration without the report — when the pass is in a tier that requires a report. Pure minor edits remain summary-only.

Situational section headers (vocabulary, not mandatory list)

Use when they improve clarity: Actions performed; Process note; instrument_grade / Validation change; Fields changed; What each reviewer contributed; Why this decision is trusted; Meta-finding worth recording; Open Items; What this report does NOT claim; Nonconformance; Development Breadcrumb; Readiness Gap.

What disqualifies an entry from being official

Missing any of: heading with “Calibration Report” + page name + date; Reviewer; Method and Standing (or legacy Review Type clearly stating both); AI attribution when AI was used; Actions / Summary of changes; Open Items section where the tier requires it; paired edit summary where the tier requires a full report; editing a previous report in place instead of a new dated entry.

Relationship to other standards

Open Calibration Items

  • After a few Confirmation and Ripple reports exist, add one worked example of each light tier on Talk of this page.
  • Align any remaining “Review Type only” examples in the wild to Method + Standing on contact.

See the Page Transparency & Calibration section above for this page's Calibration Log / Decision Records / Talk links. See the Game. Refuse the Game. Build Better.


Structural Connections


Page Transparency & Calibration

This page is under continuous calibration in line with the Permanent Beta principle.


Public Discussion Welcome

Questions, suggestions, feedback, disagreement, and proposed improvements are welcome on the Talk page.

Light rules:

  • Prefer evidence and concrete examples over slogans.
  • Apply Diagnostic Inversion Test when criticizing — the same standard to this page that you would apply elsewhere.
  • Distinguish observation from conclusion.
  • Calibration entries and Decision Records are maintenance records; public discussion belongs in ordinary Talk threads.
  • This framework remains in Permanent Beta. Better calibration is always in scope.



Calibration Dependent

Pages that list this page as a load-bearing dependency:

Page Priority Instrument Grade Last Updated Cycle Status Drift Status
Nonconformance Reporting Procedure Core Experimental 2026-07-20 Current Breadcrumb-Open
Calibration Log: When to Create One Core Development 2026-07-13 Current Breadcrumb-Open
Decision Records: Governance Memory Core Development 2026-07-14 Current Breadcrumb-Open
Admin:Maintenance Dashboard Core Experimental 2026-07-19 Current Breadcrumb-Open
Framework Features Reference Supporting Development 2026-07-20 Current Breadcrumb-Open
Template:Calibration Maintenance Log Supporting Development 2026-07-14 Current Breadcrumb-Open

If this page is edited substantively, review the list above per the Ripple Review rule — see Calibration Dependencies: Standards and Process#Rule: Core-Priority Changes Trigger Mandatory Ripple Review.


Calibration Dependencies

Pages this page relies on as load-bearing dependencies: Decision Records: Governance Memory Calibration Log: When to Create One Page Structure Calibration Checklist Nonconformance Reporting Procedure If incorrect, edit the `depends_on` field in Admin Page Status — do not edit this section directly, it is auto-generated.



Calibration References

This page is calibrated against the following core standards and reference materials:



Page Construction & Maintenance References

How we construct, maintain, and utilize each page as a self-admin control panel.

  • Distributed Instrumentation — the architectural principle behind why this page (and every page) carries its own live instrumentation, rather than relying on a separate central dashboard.
  • Page Structure Calibration Checklist — the Step 0 structural pass every page should pass before content calibration begins; this page's own structure should be checkable against it.
  • Template:New Page Seed — the seed template this page's basic structure was built from.
  • Calibration Log: When to Create One — the decision procedure this page's own Talk-only vs. dedicated-log status was decided against.
  • Framework Features Reference — maintains consistency and traceability across the framework's structural features while avoiding unnecessary maintenance overhead; consult before introducing a new structural pattern this page might otherwise duplicate.



Calibration Procedure

In development. See Calibration Procedure for current status. No formal step-by-step procedure exists yet beyond the practices demonstrated across individual pages developed during the initial creation of this project.
