How this page is made

Where an item is someone else’s reporting, this page carries the headline, a short extract and a link to the publisher — never a rewrite, never a CEFA byline. Only work marked CEFA is ours.

Nothing here is published automatically. Software assembles a proposed edition; an editor reads it and approves it by name, and only an approved edition appears on this site. When no new edition has been approved, the last approved one stays up with the date it was approved shown at the top.
