The entry still has an unresolved event fact, status, or action.

Next: finish the dated evidence-only event record.

No score, no diagnosis

This log doesn't diagnose discrimination.

There is no bias score. This log has no point total and no likely-bias threshold.

Observable facts can support a question, strategy change, deadline review, or qualified advice. The log doesn't manufacture a legal conclusion.

Record the event

Separate exact words from interpretation. A younger panel or a young-looking website isn't a pattern by itself.

Observable signals

Check only what occurred. The boxes classify the record. They don't add up.
