ARC-reviewed means a publication-specific record identifies the exact edition, responsible editor or steward, evidence reviewed, scope and date of review, limitations, and conflicts or their unknown states. This label does not mean peer review, independent replication, or endorsement unless those are separately stated. ARC-published alone means the item was accepted into the public catalogue; it does not imply that this review threshold was met.
