# Source Quality Rubric
|
|
|
|
Classify sources into tiers and prioritize higher quality evidence.
|
|
|
|
## Tier A (Highest)
|
|
- Primary sources: government data, standards bodies, peer-reviewed papers
|
|
- Official filings: annual reports, regulatory filings, audited statements
|
|
- First-party datasets with transparent methodology
|
|
|
|
## Tier B (Reliable)
|
|
- Reputable news organizations with editorial standards
|
|
- Industry analyst reports with clear methodology
|
|
- Company technical blogs with data and disclosures
|
|
|
|
## Tier C (Use Sparingly)
|
|
- Opinion pieces without evidence
|
|
- Marketing materials without verification
|
|
- Aggregators without clear sourcing
|
|
|
|
## Exclusion Rules
|
|
- Exclude sources with no date or author
|
|

|
|
- Exclude sources that are clearly outdated for the topic
|
|

## Conflict Handling
