Add evidence-expiry labels to time-sensitive VA content
Tell future editors when a price, policy, statistic, or product detail needs another look.
Where the routine breaks
A statement may be correct on publication day but become misleading when its source changes quietly weeks later.
The daily routine
Label volatile claims with the checked date, source owner, and a sensible recheck trigger. Use event-based triggers for policies and scheduled dates for recurring datasets.
Evidence to retain
The content record should connect every label to the exact claim and source rather than placing a generic review date on the whole article.
Ownership and escalation
An expired label starts review; it does not authorize an assistant to guess a replacement value or silently remove the qualification.
Keep the routine bounded
A Philippines-based assistant can prepare records, complete repeatable checks, and surface exceptions. The editor retains authority over claims, scope, and publication. Legal, security, financial, and business decisions remain with their authorized owners.
