Assessment
Supported
Main unresolved issue: 3 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:f95f077e-962c-8162-a1a2-e77a5a17f26d
Not yet independently audited.Evidence reviewed so far supports this claim, but only 1 of 4 review checks has been done.A quoted passage from en.wikipedia.org was not found on the page when Galedra fetched it.
Why?
Strongest counted support: The supplied passage directly calls the Canjuers assemblage the youngest Jurassic turtle fauna known from Europe. weight 1.800000 evidence
Suppressed as dependent: The abstract describes the Canjuers thalassochelydian assemblage as the youngest Jurassic turtle fauna known from Europe.
Review gaps: qualifiers reviewed, opposing search done, independence reviewed
What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Unresolved.
