Presentation QA Limericks 023: Read-First Review of Thirteen Records

Maintenance ID: 0.1.00131.limericks-023 Date: 2026-10-08 Scope: content/limericks/ — the thirteen records assigned by workload issue #689 (lim-gown-of-recognition.md through lim-index-mourner.md, LIM-0100–LIM-0112)

What changed

  • Read all thirteen assigned records in full, frontmatter through final line. Every assigned file was identical to snapshot 8997eebee2a4e620c5dd47fcea97abf515c4cac6 at review time; no intervening diffs to disclose.
  • lim-gown-of-recognition.md line 56: bolded "And nobody mentions the truth." — the payoff line of the stanza that calls the Gown a sham and a structural scam; the record's cover-up thesis.
  • lim-gratitude-latch.md line 56: bolded "And justified all of the pain." — the payoff of the break-it-to-harvest stanza; the record's whole mechanism in one line.
  • lim-greenband-gregor.md line 32: bolded "And we call it a victory instead." — the metric-theater payoff closing the punctuated era's thesis stanza.
  • lim-hover-parish.md line 48: bolded "Where the metrics and bullshit collide." — the payoff of the stanza about what the pixel-wide wall hides.
  • Asterisks only in all four edits; the trailing two-space hard break sits outside the markers, matching prior limericks dockets.
  • Recounted content/changelog/ source records, including this docket, and set the trunk's Count: to 104. README totals updated to match source: 2,309 pages, 11 trunks, 2,298 satellites.

What was deliberately left alone

  • All frontmatter, canonical IDs, titles, tags, stanza structure, indentation, two-space hard breaks, quoted/documentary material, and existing emphasis throughout.
  • Three records already carry ingest-era bold and stayed unchanged: lim-gregwar-cache-wizard (**resized**, **original**, <u>Gregwar</u> in stanza 1), lim-htaccessius-the-doorman (**AllowOverride**), and lim-htmlie-structura (**demanded**, **div**).
  • Five records carry substantial italics or code spans that already serve the emphasis function and stayed unchanged: lim-guacamole-gardener, lim-haikool-breeze, lim-hammy-navstack, lim-holy-doswell, lim-inchkeeper-bale.
  • lim-index-mourner stayed unchanged: its payoff lines are generic decay-mourning, and its one distinctive line is the quote-anomaly line flagged below.

Verification performed

  • BORIS_BIN=/Users/tbuddy/dev/filed.fyi/bin/boris ./bin/validate_graph.sh — passed: Boris graph diagnostics, full Cantilever compile, verse residue check, Filed certification.
  • git diff on the four changed records confirms emphasis markers only; no word, order, ID, link, or whitespace changes.
  • python3 scripts/check_collection_counts.py — PASS after updating the changelog trunk count and README totals.
  • python3 scripts/fix_verse_hard_breaks.py --check content — 0 violations; every non-final stanza line in the assigned set already carries its hard break.

Unresolved follow-up

  • Two needs decision items posted on #689, both quote-style inconsistencies inside protected verse, left as found: lim-gown-of-recognition.md mixes curly U+2019 at lines 16/21/36/38 with a lone straight apostrophe at line 44; lim-index-mourner.md pairs curly at line 28 with straight at line 74. Same anomaly class as flagged under #675.
