Editorial summary

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current 11-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Qarah, Khan and Wikimedia providing the first useful test.
