  • The Xiang'er commentary argued that sacrificial practices were empowering the demons at the expense of the higher and beneficent deities who did not eat sacrifices.

    “For example, the Xiang'er commentary, one of the early millenarian texts, argued that sacrificial practices, far from transforming a dangerous and/or indifferent world, were in fact empowering the demons at the expense of the higher and beneficent deities who did not eat sacrifices (Puett, 2004).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
