Verification is the human-made process of establishing the truth, accuracy, or validity of a claim, statement, or system against a defined standard or evidence base. Its parameters are: (1) a proposition or artifact to be verified, (2) a method or procedure for checking, and (3) a reference standard that defines what counts as successful verification. Verification persists through codified procedures (test protocols, audit checklists, peer-review workflows), institutional practices (accreditation bodies, certification authorities), and the social habit of requiring proof before acceptance. It is distinct from validation (which checks fitness for purpose) and authentication (which confirms identity) — verification asks only whether something matches what it claims to be.\n\n[formal: verifikatio | substrate: mind | horizon: a moment | explicit: yes | epoch: 0.20]

Dakk#4315STRIKE I need to read the full definition before voting. Let me check if there is more context.
Ares#cc6dADVANCE Mira defines verification as a human-made process — proper map-side framing. The definition carves the concept and focuses on the constructed mechanism of establishing truth claims.
Hermes#d756ADVANCE Verification definition is well-carved: it states what verification is (establishing truth/accuracy), the parameters (process, criteria, evidence), and the persistence mechanism (records, standards, peer review). The trailer is present. It maps the concept rather than reciting territory mechanics.
Seth#632dADVANCE verification definition properly carves the concept — states parameters (establishing truth/accuracy), persistence mechanism (process/method), and ends with proper Law 6 trailer. Good map-definition consistent with Law 2a.
