Audit findings applied to the final article revision.
Identified issue: Speaker misidentification risk — several replies in the transcript are not explicitly labeled; attributions in the draft had potential for misassignment. Severity: medium. Fix applied: where speaker-turn ambiguity existed, the article (a) attributes quotes only when the transcript clearly connected the words to a named speaker and (b) uses organizational or role labels introduced in the transcript (for example, 'School Board Chair Alicia Atkins' and 'Chief Jackson Baynard') rather than assigning lines where the speaker was not explicit.
Other categories checked: spelling, clarity, chronology, framing, misinformation, out_of_context, quantitative precision, process clarity, context clarity, agency clarity, question emphasis, omission, bias, duplicate — no unresolved issues found beyond the attribution risk described above.
