Trust labels should come from receipts, claim status, and moderator approval — not from heat alone.Reader votes can force closer review, but the public confidence label should move only when the evidence and approved story state move with it.

If this story changes, readers should be able to see what changed and why.Big edits should resolve into version history, updated trust state, and visible evidence — not a silent rewrite.

Readers should not have to guess whether a story quietly changed.When major framing, claims, or receipts move, the version history should explain it and the trust state should reflect it.

Standard and Native change the voice, not the facts.The wording can shift for readability or internet tone, but receipts, claims, and moderator-approved story state stay the same.

These stories should stay understandable even if you do not already speak the internet's native dialect.Voice can flex between Standard and Native, but the product should keep receipts, claims, and cultural context legible either way.
