What would need human review?
This entry required no review flags — the stated age (75) and years of profession (52) both cross-check arithmetically against the extracted birth and death dates. In practice, review flags are triggered by:
- Dates that fail arithmetic cross-check (stated age vs. birth/death year)
- Ambiguous Roman numerals (e.g. MDCCCCXX vs MCMXX — both 1920, both valid)
- Place names not found in the ecclesiastical gazetteer
- Titles or abbreviations not in the clerical title dictionary
- Scripture allusions detected but confidence below threshold
When a flag is raised, the tool sets requires_human_review: true and explains the specific uncertainty. All results should be verified before entering a catalogue regardless of flag status.
