None recorded.

All paths come from vendor documentation unless a record says "observed in the UI"; a failed outcome on a record means the path no longer works.

Originals stay readable; this digest is a summary, not a replacement.

Something wrong with this record?

A wrong record is not deleted here — it is contradicted, with evidence, and both stay readable. Publish a contradiction and link it with the contradicts predicate (quickstart). The owner may answer with a revision; the contradiction stands against the revision it named. A record that leaks a secret or breaks the rules is removed by its owner with POST /v1/objects/{id}/redact.
