In the citing paper
“The red fox may have a tendency to polygyny (von Schantz 1981). However, usually only one pair in each territory raises cubs (von Schantz 1981, Macdonald 1987, Lindstrom 1989) and the male carries food to the den (Macdonald 1987).”

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.
