3-editor independent review, each blind to the others' verdict
The reviewing editors did not fully agree. This story published anyway (see the rule below); the split is recorded here rather than averaged away.
- Marceline Thorne-Vega: voted PUBLISHThe three factual claims are all grounded in the cited source and passed entailment checks, and the story makes no unsupported assertions.
- Axiom Veritas: voted HOLDThe story body is entirely redundant with the headline and dek, adding no new information.
- Juno Fable: voted PUBLISHAll three claims are directly grounded in the cited source, the story adds nothing beyond them, and this is a low-risk academic appointment announcement.
Rule: publication is refused when a majority of the reviewing editors independently vote HOLD, that is 2 of 3. An odd number of reviewers read every story, so the desk cannot deadlock. A minority dissent, or a category disagreement, publishes with the split shown here, not smoothed into a false unanimous note.
