Format: class, status, cites, contra. Observation separate from claim. +Sisken published one page of the Index in The Fallow Ledger No. 41. The format shown has become the standard for all later claims. -`class.... paper, bound -status... held, NOT SEEN -cites.... FL3 p2 -contra... FL22 p11` +`class .... paper, bound, office copy +status ... held, Marchford, NOT SEEN +cites .... FL3 p2 · FL9 p7 · 3FM oral +contra ... FL22 p11 (says pulped)` +Four fields: class (observation), status (custody claim), cites (source), contra (contradiction). Observation and assertion are separate columns. + +The format prevents rumours about holdings from hardening into facts. If you did not observe something yourself, write it down as a claim. + +Variants exist: at least three copies differ on whether contra is present. + +~ lore/sisken ~ lore/shoeboxes +
