Source dossiers and revision state

This layer records what is known about each source, what is still missing, and the exact snapshot this page is rendering. A missing date, archive or hash stays visible as missing.

unreviewed Revision 2026-08-27-claims-and-sources effective 2026-08-27 · created 2026-08-27

Awaiting operator and domain-expert review; publication of this revision implies neither.

Erratum on this revision's envelope. The snapshot, its hash and its permanent link are untouched.

  • createdAt previously read 2026-08-29T22:00:00Z. The batching script that produced this revision advanced createdAt into the future to satisfy the strictly-increasing order the validator requires per entity. The value never recorded a real event; the corrected value is the moment the revision provably existed in the repository. Corrected to 2026-08-27T02:55:34Z on 2026-08-27; evidence: first appears in commit 0f98748c4d, committed 2026-08-27T02:55:34Z.

The City of Munich's own project page (it replaces the lapsed smarter-together.eu, which is now a real-estate site). Source for the district and its scale — Neuaubing-Westkreuz/Freiham, about 30,000 residents, around EUR 20 million invested by the project's end in 2021 — and for what was delivered against what was planned: eight multimodal mobility stations went live by the end of 2018, while raising 42,000 m² of housing to a demanding energy standard is described as what was planned ('Es war geplant, 42.000 Quadratmeter Wohnfläche auf einen anspruchsvollen Energiestandard zu heben').

Known limits of this passport
  • Publisher names and source languages have not yet been classified; domains are recorded without guessing.
  • Existing source notes are descriptive locators, not page- or paragraph-exact citations.
  • A missing archive, publication date or content hash is shown as null rather than inferred.
  • The project-level evidence grade ranks the strongest source in the entry; it is not a truth score for every claim.
