Evidence rules

Use only verified author credentials, first-hand experience, testimonials, certifications and permissions for logos/badges. Mark absent evidence as missing; never fabricate an expert identity, review, quote or case study to improve apparent authority. For YMYL content, identify factual claims requiring a qualified reviewer and current primary sources. Any X/10 score below is a disclosed internal rubric, not a Google metric or ranking forecast. Google explains that E-E-A-T is not itself a specific ranking factor.
