+## Editorial rules
+
+- Prefer concise, neutral descriptions.
+- Use role-based public contact or directory links, not private personal data.
+- Do not call a commercial dataset exhaustive unless its publisher establishes that claim.
+- Mark uncertainty explicitly.
+- Keep category names aligned with `docs/03-taxonomy.md`.
+
+## Definition of done
+
+A change is done when the structured record validates, the readable directory agrees with it, the source is primary where possible, and limitations are documented.
