Each entry is that person's own stated view, with its sources.
The badge says what kind of source backs it — official record, own statement, news report or
encyclopedia — which describes the evidence, not how much we believe it. Nothing is totalled or
ranked; recorded votes are counted only to point to the member's record, where each is listed.
