 +===== Quote-check refresh, 2026-09-21 =====
 +
 +The 2026-09-04 ''cols''-vs-PDF audit on [[:provenance:literature:corpus]] showed that 73.1% of evidence quotes that cannot be located in ''paper.cols.txt'' **are** present in an independent ''pypdf'' rendering of the same ''paper.pdf''. ''cd_quotecheck.mjs'' already carried the fallback; what was stale was this page's copy of its output, which came from the 2026-08-29 run. Re-run, last line, unedited:
 +
 +<code>
 +$ node scripts/cd_quotecheck.mjs
 +161 quotes: 111 exact, 37 partial, 11 rescued from the PDF, 2 below threshold in BOTH renderings
 +</code>
 +
 +^ Figure ^ Was ^ Is ^ Why ^
 +| quotes checked | 161 | 161 | population unchanged |
 +| exact | 111 | 111 | unchanged |
 +| partial (≥60% of 5-word windows) | 37 | 37 | unchanged |
 +| rescued from the PDF | — | **11** | these were inside the old 13 |
 +| below threshold | **13** | **2** (in both renderings) | 13 = 11 + 2 exactly |
 +
 +**Both embedded output blocks were regenerated, not hand-edited.** ''out/cd_quotecheck-output.txt'' was rewritten by re-running the checker and the §Y2 block by re-running ''report_crawler_detection.mjs'', which reads the last line of that artifact rather than carrying the figure itself. The report's output is otherwise **byte-identical** to the published copy — the only line that moved is the one quoting the checker — which is the check that nothing else on this page drifted.
 +
 +**Scope of this edit.** The two output blocks, the prose under the verdict table, the guard-table row and the content page's quote bullet. No fold, candidate count, obstruction rate or citation was touched.
