Canon curator
The person who decides what this canon says: what is undecided, what is contested between sources, and what is waiting for a judgement.
What this workspace asks

What this participant may do
Every action stands on a permission that already exists. A workspace never offers what the database would refuse.
- Decide a record — Decide what the canon says: publish, refuse, or ask for evidence.
- Read the evidence chain — Read the chain behind a number.
This role is shown what the system is checking right now. That desk opens only for a named curator who is signed in, so there is no way through to it from here.
Who to take it to
Hand-offs written down in advance: from whom, on which question, and why that participant rather than another.
- What is missing → Researcher — A gap the canon cannot close by curation is a gap that needs a study.
