Source ledger

What each feed is used for, how it appears in the briefing, and what readers should expect from the links.

News

Local reporting

Tynwald

Parliamentary business

Tynwald and committee material is rewritten in plain English so readers can see what is on the agenda, who said what, what changed and what is coming next.

12Used for: agenda summaries and decision/watch cards.

Reader verification ladder

A compact trust path for readers who need to move from a briefing item to a confident next action.

1 · Identify

Name the source type first

Each item should be readable as reporting, Tynwald, government, FOI, tender, event, weather, tide, travel or commercial context before the reader opens another tab.

2 · Confirm

Follow the authoritative source

Use the original outlet or public record for claims, dates, deadlines, safety notes and official wording. Secondary guides are for context, not final authority.

3 · Act

Choose the safe next step

After checking the source, readers can quote it, respond to a consultation, plan travel, send a correction, share the public route or subscribe for tomorrow.

Recommended source directory

High-value public sources, grouped by the reader question they answer. Weak or stale links stay out of the main directory.

Source groups to monitor

Use these groups when adding newsletter sections, topic pages or daily checks. Link to source pages; do not copy protected text or images.

Freshness and corrections

Daily checks are published to the site, and reader corrections go to the Moghrey Mie mailbox for review and reply.

Daily checks

  • Latest issue is published to the web archive after the newsletter send.
  • Original links are preserved whenever a public source is available.
  • Government, FOI, tender and Tynwald items are rewritten for scanability, not hidden behind raw URLs.
  • Public pages are checked on desktop and phone-sized screens before updates are treated as reader-ready.

Corrections mailbox

Readers can report a missing link, unreadable source, wrong deadline, unclear agenda item or factual correction. Corrections go to hello@moghreymie.com, not a personal inbox.
