Prepare a structured assessment of a source’s origin, evidence, credibility, and possible bias. Share the source text or relevant excerpts, where it came from, and the question you are investigating. The assessment can distinguish observable details from interpretation and flag what remains uncertain. Add context, another source, or a specific concern in a follow-up to refine the notes or tailor them for research, journalism, or content planning.
