DataCite `creators[0].nameIdentifiers[0]`; the ORCID public record itself
lists the work under DOI `10.5281/ZENODO.21907367`).

## Disambiguation

### Positive disambiguation

The publication event is a real, publicly retrievable artifact on
Zenodo (a CERN-operated open-access repository), with a DOI registered
through DataCite, a corresponding Wikidata publication item
(Q141020249), and the work listed on the author's ORCID public record.
The four external systems are independent of the KTS Global evidence
locker, and the underlying bytes are archived here with published
SHA-256 anchors.

### Negative disambiguation (what this evidence does NOT establish)

1. **Zenodo publication and DOI registration do NOT constitute peer
   review, scientific endorsement, or independent technical
   verification** of the paper's contents. Zenodo is a general-purpose
   open-access repository; DataCite is a DOI registration authority.
   Neither performs peer review of deposited content.

2. **Wikidata representation (Q141020249) reflects that the publication
   event exists as a bibliographic record.** It does not constitute
   Wikidata endorsement of any technical claim inside the paper, nor
   independent verification of any such claim.

3. **ORCID identifier association confirms only that the ORCID public
   record lists this work under `0009-0008-7130-1448`.** It does not
   constitute ORCID technical verification of the paper's contents.

4. **Deposit on Zenodo does NOT establish world-first status, category
   ownership, or IETF/Zenodo/Wikidata/ORCID endorsement of any specific
   technical claim made inside the paper.**

## Provenance and independence

**KTS Global is the publisher of the Zenodo record** (as recorded by
DataCite: `publisher = "KTS Global"`). This evidence package is
therefore **not an independent third-party verification** of the
publication. It is a **first-party publication record**: the operator
of this evidence locker is the same organisation named as publisher on
the Zenodo/DataCite metadata.

What is externally verifiable here is that the four **independent
external systems** — Zenodo (CERN), DataCite, Wikidata, and ORCID —
return the identity constants above at the verification timestamp, and
that the archived source captures reproduce byte-for-byte from those
systems. Anyone can re-run the retrievals in `sources/SOURCE-RETRIEVAL-LOG.json`
and compare against the SHA-256 anchors published in
`EVIDENCE-HASH-MANIFEST.sha256`.

## Corrections applied during verification

No discrepancies between the recorded metadata and the authoritative
primary sources were found. DOI, title, author, ORCID, publisher,
publication date (2026-08-12), version ("Foundational Version 1.2"),
license (CC BY 4.0), and language (English) all matched exactly across
Zenodo, DataCite, Wikidata, and ORCID.

## Evidence integrity

- Machine-readable record: `claimreview.json` (Schema.org `ClaimReview` inside `ItemList`)
- Verification receipt: `verification-receipt.json`
- Source captures: `sources/` (byte-exact retrievals from Zenodo, Wikidata, DataCite, ORCID)
- Hash manifest: `EVIDENCE-HASH-MANIFEST.sha256`

**Logged by:** Tim Jacobs / KTS Global

> Note on independence: unlike the `web4-ietf-series-2026-08` package (where
> the IETF Datatracker is an independent third-party system of record), this
> package documents a publication for which KTS Global itself is the named
> publisher. The custodian is therefore **not** described as independent for
> this record; independence attaches only to the four external systems
> (Zenodo, DataCite, Wikidata, ORCID), whose responses are archived here.
