Rationale

Rationale |
| Reliability |
First Draft is the primary organization operationalizing Wardle's work |
| Relevance |
Directly relevant — if anyone has operationalized the taxonomy, it would be First Draft |
| Bias flags |
Missing data: specific training materials not publicly available for detailed analysis. COI: Wardle co-founded both the taxonomy and First Draft, creating incentive to present adoption positively |
| Evidence ID |
Summary |
| SRC02-E01 |
First Draft trained 37+ newsrooms using the framework as a conceptual lens, not a classification tool |
