Priority
Priority is given to participant-safety, personal-data, major-conclusion, and multi-format or language issues. Disagreement with interpretation is not necessarily an error, but may still merit review.
Review
The report is checked against source material, tables, code, and versions. The outcome may be no error, a minor correction, a material notice, a new version, or withdrawal under the Corrections Policy.

Useful evidence
A page link, file name, page or table number, screenshot, calculation, or alternative source is useful. The reporter does not need to identify the final technical cause; an examinable inconsistency is sufficient.
