Unverified Outline - Verification Status and Authoring Constraints (placeholder domain pending source)

  • The supplied outline for LTF12 contains a single domain entry whose title explicitly labels it as a placeholder pending source, so no subject-matter topic list, sub-domain map, or item weighting can be derived from it.

  • Decision rule: when a domain title contains 'placeholder', 'pending source', or 'unverified', every subject-matter claim about that exam is treated as unconfirmed and output is restricted to process and verification facts.

  • An outline reaches verified status only when three elements are present and cited: domain titles, weightings that sum to 100 percent, and a named target audience; missing any one of the three holds the exam at unverified.

  • Formula: disclosed-weighting check - the sum of domain percentages must equal 100 with a tolerance of plus or minus 0.5 percentage points; LTF12 currently discloses zero weights, so the check is undefined rather than passed.

  • Source-control rule: each outline revision carries a source identifier, a retrieval date, and a content hash, and any fact lacking a source identifier cannot be promoted from provisional to verified.

  • Distractor-authoring rule for unverified outlines: avoid numeric thresholds such as durations, percentages, and maximum limits, because those are the values most likely to change between outline revisions.

  • Escalation trigger: two or more independent sources disagreeing on domain titles, weightings, or audience moves the exam to needs_review and blocks publication of dependent items until a human reconciles the conflict.

  • Card-allocation formula: with 32 cards across N domains, each domain receives floor(32 divided by N) base cards, and the remaining (32 mod N) cards go one each to the earliest-numbered domains.

  • Retirement rule: content attached to a placeholder domain is marked provisional, published only with a visible caveat, and rechecked at a scheduled re-review date once the official outline is obtained.
