In the citing paper
“Previous collections in the Journal of Global Buddhism have moved to counter these traditional priorities, namely the recent Special Focus Bad Buddhism explored how contemporary Buddhist practices ' challenge normative interpretations, unsettle, or even disgust the observer, and appear to degrade or distract from so-called ' authentic ' or ' pure ' Buddhism ' (Gould and McKay 2020).”

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.
