PHASE 239
Encyclopedia tooling release
Integrated seven new checks for the writing guide, draft checker, type facets, Smell and Culture, editorial governance, entry citations and heading order into the 168-check production gate.
CHANGELOG ARCHIVE · PAGE 3 OF 7
Earlier changes.
Entries 101–150, newest first.
PHASE 238
Accessibility audit
Ran axe-core on every route type at desktop and mobile widths and fixed a heading-order issue on source and evidence pages.
PHASE 237
Cite this entry
Every smell page now shows a citation with its permanent identifier and revision; the knowledge graph citation names its digest.
PHASE 236
Draft editorial governance
Published draft roles, review separation, reserved decisions and conflict-of-interest rules for adoption.
PHASE 235
Smell and Culture course
Launched a third free Learn course on smellscapes, time, shared meanings, work and smell heritage.
PHASE 234
Places and materials in search
Places and materials are now findable in search; exact entry names still rank first.
PHASE 233
Type facets
Parsed every entry's type label into controlled facets and fixed four entries whose curated type did not match.
PHASE 232
Five new descriptors
Added metallic, resinous, marine, fermented and chemical to the descriptor vocabulary.
PHASE 231
Draft checker
Editors can check a draft entry against every publication rule before it enters the pipeline.
PHASE 230
Writing guide
Every entry and draft is now checked against a neutral, claim-free writing standard.
PHASE 229
Encyclopedia readiness release
Integrated nine new checks for the entry standard, pipeline, identity rules, places and materials, evidence agenda, graph records, Introduction to Smell, the heritage record draft and correction notices into the 161-check production gate.
PHASE 228
Corrections keyed to permanent identifiers
Correction notices now name every affected permanent identifier and appear on smell pages and graph records. None has been published.
PHASE 227
Draft heritage record format
Published a draft JSON Schema for olfactory heritage records that link to SmellBook identifiers, for discussion with museums and archives. No institution uses it yet.
PHASE 226
Introduction to Smell course
Launched a second free SmellBook Learn course: five lessons built from the Atlas, quoting VERIFIED claims exactly.
PHASE 225
Per-entity graph records
Every knowledge-graph entity now has its own record with typed relationships and provenance at /data/graph/{type}/{key}.json.
PHASE 224
Evidence research agenda
Published one open research question for each entry without a VERIFIED claim. No new sources were added without a checked citation.
PHASE 223
Places and materials
Added 41 places and 16 materials to the knowledge graph with smellscape, found-in and produced-by relationships.
PHASE 222
Duplicate and merge rules
Every name and alias now identifies one entry; look-alike entries are reviewed, and merges retire identifiers without reusing them.
PHASE 221
Entry pipeline
New entries reach the Atlas only through draft, review and a publication check; identifiers are issued at publication.
PHASE 220
Entry standard
Every published entry now meets a machine-checked standard, with development signals reported per entry.
PHASE 219
Knowledge graph foundations release
Integrated nine new checks for identifiers, entities, relationships, evidence, the Spanish pilot, data rights, source intake, Learn and the graph export into the 152-check production gate.
PHASE 218
Open knowledge graph export
Published every entity and typed relationship as a rights-gated dataset with permanent identifiers, provenance, licence status and a sha256 digest.
PHASE 217
Smell Vocabulary course
Launched a free SmellBook Learn course with lessons such as earthy vs mineral, built from the Atlas descriptor data.
PHASE 216
Source intake and evidence gaps
Added a rights-aware source intake workflow and evidence gaps by category and type.
PHASE 215
Data rights and licensing
Classified every exportable field by rights class; citing a source never implies a right to republish it, and the dataset licence is stated explicitly.
PHASE 214
Spanish multilingual pilot
A small hand-checked Spanish pilot with localized names, English fallback, hreflang and Spanish search.
PHASE 213
Evidence classes
Every claim and relationship now carries one of six evidence classes, and a contribution review model is designed with no live submissions.
PHASE 212
Typed relationships
Replaced untyped links with typed relationships that carry direction, meaning and provenance.
PHASE 211
Entity model
Descriptors, categories, types, contexts, claims and sources became first-class entities with permanent identifiers.
PHASE 210
Permanent identifiers
Every public record received a permanent smellbook: identifier that is never reused, with a resolver.
PHASE 209
Product coherence release gate
Integrated eight new checks — search quality, product truth, navigation, descriptors, personal resilience, applied-scent journeys, experience integrity and task-registry integrity — into the production gate.
PHASE 208
Accessibility and reachability
Brought text colours to WCAG AA contrast, exposed map links to assistive technology, fixed landmarks and heading order, and linked every smell from another profile.
PHASE 207
Fragrance & Spaces journeys
Smell profiles now link to the scent directions, intents and spaces that cite them, and space pages show each direction's Atlas references.
PHASE 206
Personal SmellBook resilience
Fixed note and tag typing on unsaved smells, protected damaged local data, and added import preview with merge or replace and a clear confirmation.
PHASE 205
Descriptor consistency
Added Earthy, Soft and Cool descriptor pages and put every profile on the descriptor pages its own descriptors name.
PHASE 204
Everyday search vocabulary
Search understands everyday words such as relaxing, cozy and seaside, and 32 profiles gained widely used alternate names.
PHASE 203
Search quality
Search now folds plurals and adjective forms, suggests spellings for zero-result queries and is checked against regression fixtures.
PHASE 202
One navigation everywhere
Every page shares one navigation for Explore, Map, My SmellBook, Fragrance, Spaces, Stories and Labs, with section links underneath and a working phone menu.
PHASE 201
Product truth consistency
A build check now rejects copy that contradicts the public capability matrix.
PHASE 200
Documentation truth audit
README, capability documentation and site copy now describe the live map, Personal SmellBook and Fragrance & Spaces tools accurately.
PHASE 199
Labs retained audit comparison release
Integrated immutable Phase 189 audit retention, truthful Phase 189 → Phase 199 comparison and five new snapshot validators into the 135-check production gate.
PHASE 198
Audit snapshot discovery and governance
Registered retained audit history across schemas, inventory, checksums, documentation, capabilities and public discovery while preserving the noindex RESEARCH boundary.
PHASE 197
Audit snapshot machine exports
Published machine-readable retained snapshot and release-comparison contracts with SHA-256 digests over declared public audit inputs.
PHASE 196
Packet-level retained comparison
Added read-only packet comparison pages that trace retained candidate, review, context, lens and matrix inputs across releases.
PHASE 195
Labs audit release comparison
Added a server-rendered Phase 189 → Phase 199 comparison with descriptive added, removed, changed and unchanged states.
PHASE 194
Labs audit history interface
Added a noindex history surface for retained audit snapshots and explicit reference-only releases where fingerprints were never preserved.
PHASE 193
Audit delta summaries
Added deterministic per-family and per-packet comparison summaries without turning change states into scores, rankings or review outcomes.
PHASE 192
Deterministic retained-input comparison
Added comparison semantics that use only explicitly retained audit inputs and never reconstruct missing historical state.
PHASE 191
Labs audit snapshot registry
Added retained record-set identities, release references and explicit comparable/reference-only snapshot states.
PHASE 190
Immutable Phase 189 audit baseline
Retained the exact 279-record Phase 189 Labs audit input projection before beginning the next strategy tranche.
