Summary
Internal audit identified transcript typos and clarified names, corrected spellings of the parish and organizations, ensured vote tallies and figures matched the record, and adjusted article text to avoid inference beyond the transcript; articles were revised accordingly.
An internal audit (spelling, clarity, chronology, framing, misidentification, quantitative precision, omission) found typographical and transcription errors in the source (e.g., multiple misspellings of 'Caddo Parish') and corrected them in all articles. Numeric items (bond principal, interest rate, '230 families', '2,000 children') were preserved only where stated on the record and flagged for provenance. No new facts were invented; where the transcript lacked details (e.g., purchase price for Manchester acquisition) articles state that amounts were not specified. Quotes and attributions were restricted to speakers explicitly identified in the transcript. Revisions addressed all audit items.
