    Why this matters

    Mapping evidence across canonical page, first-party profile, independent corroborators, and relevant assets ensures consistency and strengthens entity trustworthiness.

    A STARTING-POINT EXAMPLE

    Hypothetical standard operating procedure

    Adapt this example to your site, access, tools, and change process. It is our suggested procedure, informed by the sources below.

    1. List exact URLs and excerpts from your canonical website with identity claims.
    2. Collect URLs and evidence from your first-party public profiles and confirm consistency.
    3. Identify independent corroborators and document matching information.
    4. Catalog relevant content proving the entity’s specialty and ensure source trail.

    Watch for

    Discrepancies or missing corroborators indicate conflicting or weak entity identity signals.

    Definition of done

    All four evidence surfaces present matching, verifiable facts supporting the same identity claim.
