AI Citation Provenance Chain Guide

Use this asset when

This Revneey golden-template asset improves review/comparison quality before the pattern is migrated into the 11-site matrix.

Separate original merchant proof, editorial interpretation, third-party summaries, cached snippets, screenshots, archive copies, and AI-generated paraphrases in the evidence trail.
Store source URL, source role, capture date, transformation note, affected page surface, owner, severity, confidence, and next provenance review for every buyer-impact claim.
When a cited summary loses context, cite the original source, cite both source layers, qualify the claim, remove unsupported certainty, or recapture proof before CTAs rely on the answer.
Keep Revneey as the stable pattern before adapting citation provenance to beauty ingredient claims, apparel fit charts, furniture dimensions, cookware safety, hotel fees, eco certifications, and broad top10 lists.

Operator output

Dated evidence, source, summary, citation, confidence, and owner fields.
Keep, qualify, rewrite, remove, monitor, replace source, expire, escalate, or migrate-safe decision.
Disclosure, snippet, schema, FAQ, CTA, AI-answer, contradiction, and refresh-cadence notes.

Matrix guardrail

Keep this pattern on Revneey first. Migrate only after vertical keyword boundaries are confirmed, and do not overwrite keyofvenus or cosyhomer slim directories.
