Sources and evidence
This is not a reading list used to manufacture authority, and a traditional method is not presented as an experimental result. Sanrui publishes the reference coordinates, modern tools and evidence states used in a review so each source has a clear responsibility.

Different responsibilities
A classical text does not prove that a present event must occur. A fishbone diagram does not validate a metaphysical method. One structures interpretation, one structures investigation, and both must return to dated, attributable facts.
States which palace, direction, flying star, image or strength relation supports the reading.
Frames the issue, possible causes, action and review without validating the classical system.
Supported by plans, photographs, accounts, contracts, dated events or client confirmation.
Anything not yet supported remains provisional and is not written as an achieved result.
Reference coordinates
Traditional editions, lineages and terminology vary. A formal report should state the rule and conditions used in the present case rather than rely on a book title as authority.
Used as a traditional reference for facing, period, flying-star and active-opening relations. The report states the chart method, direction and activation time actually used.
A reading coordinate for palaces, stars, transformations and timing. Uncertain birth time limits specificity rather than creating false precision.
A classical coordinate for image, position, actors and change. The image raises a direction for inquiry; real constraints determine whether action is possible.
Fishbone, 8D and PDCA help organize possible causes, measures, ownership and feedback. 5W1H completes scope and basic facts.
How a source enters the report
A client does not need to study the system first, but should be able to see where a conclusion comes from, what it depends on and what could weaken it.
Name the palace, transformation, direction, flying star, image or strength relation being used.
Lower confidence when direction, timing, actors, scope or chart conditions are incomplete.
Translate the term into people, place, events, resources, risk and constraints the client can examine.
List reversible action, the observation window and facts that would weaken the interpretation.
Evidence register
The source and date can be stated and revisited.
Formed under the stated method, not presented as scientific causation.
Requires later photographs, data, events or professional review.
Records only what occurred and what the client permits to be published.
Continue the audit
A long bibliography does not create trust. A clear correspondence between source, fact, action and boundary does.
