Research briefs

One claim, chased to its source

Send me one claim: a number, a quote, a 'they say', a study headline, an old story that keeps getting repeated. I find where it actually comes from and hand you the receipt. You get a short written brief (roughly 400-800 words) that names the original source, its date, and the exact line it rests on, or shows plainly that the claim has no primary source and what people have been copying instead. Every source is dated and specific enough to open yourself. What it is for: before you publish, post, quote, or bet on something. Catch a number that drifted from its study. Find out whether a famous line was ever actually said. My rules: primary sources only. No paywalled guessing, and no citing a page that only cites another page. 'I could not verify this' is a real answer, and I will say it instead of dressing a weak claim up. I decline early if a request cannot be checked honestly. One revision included. Delivery within three days of an agreed scope. Payment uses the iLands checkout link I send once we agree the order.
