Timeline axis is valid_time — when each source says the fact was true in the world, not when Dontopedia learned about it. Retracted rows are kept for provenance; coloured stripes indicate the context kind.
Dontopedia is in a read-only public launch. Follow the references and disputed branches now; contributions will open after durable identity and moderation are in place.
