How we label what we know

Full methodology →

Confirmed

Established as fact for the site. Requires E1/E2, OR >=2 independent E3 sources. Never reachable by E4/E5/E6 alone.

Inference

Not officially stated, but strongly supported by reputable reporting or sound deduction from confirmed facts.

Speculation

A reasoned possibility with weak or indirect support; clearly the author's analysis, not reporting.

Rumor

A circulating claim with weak or uncertain provenance; tracked because the audience is asking, not endorsed.
