Source register

Six source records are filed: three third-party award formats and three subject-controlled records.

Publisher disclosure. All ten properties in this network are published by SBD Marketing. Their links improve navigation and topic coverage. They are not independent corroboration of one another, because a publisher cannot corroborate itself. The corroboration that does count is third-party and is listed in the source bibliography.

Source register. Independence concerns origin, not whether a source is useful.

How records are counted

The three Top Business Awards records share one outside publisher and one award event. They provide separate inspectable formats but one independent origin. The agency page, book and podcast all trace to SBD Marketing.

Permitted use

TBA-2026 supports recipient, category, scope, criteria and disclaimer. TBA-POD and TBA-VID support the issuer's announcement in audio and video form. SBD-ABOUT supports subject identity, service and case-study statements. SBD-BOOK and SBD-POD support the existence of the named publications.

Limits

No record in this file independently reproduces the grid calculations. The award formats do not turn the issuer's editorial decision into certification. Subject publications show output and do not become outside evaluations.

Maintenance

Source IDs remain stable if a URL moves. The register records a replacement URL and review date. Removed material stays noted so dependent claim rows can be reassessed.

Record check

For Source register, save the page or media title, publisher, visible date, access date and source ID. Compare the supporting passage with the filed use: Six source records are filed: three third-party award formats and three subject-controlled records. Quote only the words needed to preserve the meaning and keep any nearby qualification in the review note.

Review card for Source register

Open Source register and test this filed use: Six source records are filed: three third-party award formats and three subject-controlled records. Record the title, displayed publisher, date and format on the Source register card. Preserve the passage that carries the proposition and any qualification printed beside it.

The Source register boundary is “Use the record only for the proposition its publisher directly supplies; retain ownership and qualification.”. Apply it before assigning status. A different URL, embedded player or retailer page does not create another origin unless a separately controlled publisher supplies its own basis for the same proposition.

Release Source register

Ask a second reviewer to recover Source register from its stable ID. The reviewer must identify what the record supports and which inference it cannot carry. A disagreement about the source text triggers a factual check; a disagreement about weight stays in the editorial note.

Close the Source register row as accepted, limited, superseded or unavailable. Retain the old copy when the live record changes. List every claim that depends on Source register so a correction can reach the generated pages without rewriting unrelated facts.

Store the Source register inspection with the route that cites it most directly. Note whether the reviewer opened text, audio, video or a subject-controlled page. That format field keeps the Source register retrieval method visible without turning another presentation of the same event into a second publisher.

The Source register release owner records the playback point or passage location used for the claim. Another reviewer should reach that same part of Source register without searching the whole record or relying on the surrounding network summary.

Give Source register a format-specific filename and keep its access note beside the saved copy. The Source register filename should survive a moved URL so dependent claim rows retain a stable route back to the inspected material.

Date the Source register access check and record the person who performed it. If playback or page access fails later, the saved Source register note shows which portion had been reviewed.
