E.4.PFIP:4.2 - Compare accepted sources with candidate expressions
After assembly, inspect every accepted source contribution in the named part of its candidate publication-form expression.
For each contribution, ask whether the candidate preserves the selected claim, action, result, boundary, relation, structure, or other content that made the contribution acceptable. Classification by filename, heading, or copied wording is insufficient when the receiving use changed.
Classify each accepted source contribution with one of these outcomes:
- incorporated as accepted;
- incorporated with an accepted content change;
- missing or only partly incorporated;
- placed where the intended reader or consumer cannot use it; or
- blocked because the accepted source contribution or intended candidate expression part cannot be recovered.
The checkable traversal can retain an ordinary positive classification without adding a prose row. This comparison establishes source carry-through only. It says nothing yet about unrelated predecessor content.
