The library

What has been read out of the corpus. Nine shelves, named by what the work is rather than by which instrument made it. Six carry records. Three are held, and each states what it is waiting on.

01 . The shelves

Every record here already serves at its own route; this page is the index, not a second copy. The shelves that hold nothing print what they are waiting on at the same size as the shelves that hold something.

02 . Who wrote what is here

Every record on these shelves is house-authored. No contribution has been shelved, because the corpus unit is held: the contributor terms are version 0.1, draft, not in force, and the contribution surface says which four kinds are open in the meantime.

That is why three shelves are empty and not thin. A shelf of house work labelled as contribution would report something that did not happen, so the count stays at zero until a contribution arrives under terms that are ratified.

Both figures are read from public.house_counts at each deploy, and a page that disagrees with the file does not ship. The other seven shelves carry no figure here because nothing stamps one yet; a number on this surface is derived from a file or it is not printed.

03 . What is not on any shelf

this index carries no claim of its own. every record on it is held to the standard published at /method/, and the shelves that are empty say what they are waiting on rather than saying nothing.
