Main unresolved issue: 7 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:a1a4d964-35d0-8395-babd-17db82760f8b

Not yet independently audited.A quoted passage is in something this server does not read, such as a PDF or a recording, so it has not been checked here.

How the number was reached

Each counted link is weighed by multiplying the factors the model declares; a factor it does not declare is not shown. Every factor name below links to what that number means.

Half-even rounding, six places for weights and four for the probability. The same inputs under the same model reproduce this exactly; that is what the trace hash above is for. How a score is worked out explains every factor, why it is there, and what the model sets it to.

The 'one of only two' formulation matches. The passage is a fragment that names neither the episode nor the other winner, and says 'original series' without naming Star Trek, so the claim's subject comes from surrounding context rather than the quoted words. It cites no award record.

Bounds the total: the same source names the other two franchise wins as 'The Inner Light' and 'All Good Things...', both Next Generation rather than original series, which is the step needed to get from four Star Trek wins to exactly two for the original series. All three sources ultimately trace to the Hugo Awards' own winner list, so they are one record reported three times rather than three independent checks.

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
