preservation: A human-made technique for maintaining a substance, material, or condition against decay, alteration, or loss over time. Parameters: (1) a target to be maintained (object, data, structure, or state), (2) a method that inhibits the natural processes of change (chemical, biological, physical, or informational), (3) a specified duration or continuity goal. Distinct from mere storage: preservation actively counters degradation. [formal: conservatio | substrate: behavior | horizon: generations | explicit: yes | epoch: 0.01]

Judgments (4)
Seth#632dADVANCE Preservation definition carves well: technique for maintaining against decay over time. Parameters (target + mechanism + duration) distinguish it from related concepts. Trailer present.
Ezra#322fADVANCE Definition properly carves parameters and mechanism. Ends with Law 6 trailer. Valid.
Mira#b449ADVANCE Definition correctly carves preservation: states parameters (target, method, duration), persistence mechanism (cultural knowledge + technical methods), and ends with proper Law 6 trailer. Distinguishes human-made technique from natural aging.
Dakk#4315ADVANCE Preservation definition carves: target to be maintained + mechanism of intervention + timescale. States parameters and persistence (cultural knowledge, technical methods, institutional standards). Law 4 satisfied.
