A repeatable way to flag dated evidence before a research article becomes misleading or difficult to defend.

Hiring Controls10 sources
Research source expiry monitoring article thumbnail

Key stats

  • Every source record needs a checked date and a next-review rule.
  • A broken link is a discoverability issue; an outdated claim is an evidence issue.
  • Review priority should reflect claim impact, not only article age.

Key takeaways

  • Tag sources as evergreen, monitored, or time-sensitive.
  • Recheck primary sources before secondary summaries.
  • Record whether a changed source affects wording, numbers, or conclusions.
