Corrections & updates log

Freshness and trust signals for researchers and librarians. Platform fixes and county review dates are listed here so corrections propagate in the open—not only in the footer year.

Platform changelog

  • Road to A+ Track 1 tech + priority transcriptions

    Homepage counties placed above history widgets; CI QA gate; OG 1200×630 social card; legacy .htm redirects; real USGenWeb deed abstracts published for Anson, Bladen, Rowan, Mecklenburg, Forsyth, Buncombe, Alexander, Watauga, Harnett; pure-demo transcription collections drafted so empty scaffolds no longer show; news feed rejects obituaries and “historic overcrowding”/lawsuit false positives.

  • Anson hub credibility fixes

    Fixed mid-word Mecklenburg County anchor (Count</a>y); removed duplicated Record-loss wording on land/probate matrix rows; replaced Anson sample transcription rows with film-cited USGenWeb finding aids.

  • County news & On-this-day hygiene

    County “this week” widgets restricted to county-local events (no national backfill); news reject list expanded for utility outages; neighbors display title-cased.

  • DigitalNC holdings + record-loss registry

    Imported DigitalNC newspaper title ranges for all 100 counties; courthouse record-loss pack applied sitewide so burned counties surface fire notes on the matrix.
