Research Update Dates and Source Freshness
A real publication and review date helps readers judge whether a research claim still fits its source and context.

Headline signal
3 dates: source, publication, planned review (Google Search Central: Creating helpful content). Treat this as context for planning, not a guarantee about a particular assistant or operating result.
Analysis and operating context
Methodology: freshness is recorded as evidence metadata, not used as a substitute for source quality or a reason to change a sound claim without cause.
Record the source publication or update date, the article publication date, and the planned review date for changing topics.
During review, check whether definitions, links, guidance, or key figures changed. Preserve the prior context when a new source is not directly comparable.
If a material claim cannot be refreshed or qualified, return the article to the queue rather than publishing stale certainty.
