Status and meaning

Editorial status. Not reviewed by an editor. An exploratory record that no editor has accepted. This status does not say whether a person has read any linked passage. Each evidence record above shows how it was checked.

Relation. Participation in founding an organisation or research team. Neither sole founding nor legal incorporation is implied.

Date. Arc's founding year as stated on the same about page ("Founded in 2021"); the page gives no month and no separate date for each founder's participation.
