505 WORDS.
The graph already touches more words than it fully explains. This is the exact expansion queue: every candidate begins with a reviewed relationship and named source, but none is allowed to masquerade as complete. Exact reconstructed roots stay in the Root Atlas, while source-cited decisions that a form is a represented variant—not a separate lexeme—remain visible below.

fian
WHY THIS IS NOT A NEW DOSSIER2 DIRECT SOURCES
Project Wulfila redirects fian to fijan, Streitberg groups the j-bearing and j-less forms under one historical verb, and the reviewed graph already represents that relationship as an orthographic-variant edge. No exact corpus infinitive fian or separate Gothic lexeme is claimed, so a second dossier would manufacture lexical independence rather than add evidence.

hatan
WHY THIS IS NOT A NEW DOSSIER3 DIRECT SOURCES
Köbler normalizes the Old Saxon weak verb as hatōn while identifying hatan as the exact Munich-manuscript infinitive at Heliand 1451 and haton as the corresponding Cotton reading. The Munich pixels directly verify hatan, and the reviewed dossier preserves it as an orthographic-variant node inside the same lexeme. Promoting a second Old Saxon hatan dossier would duplicate a written spelling rather than add an independent lexical identity.

kêdos
WHY THIS IS NOT A NEW DOSSIER2 DIRECT SOURCES
Merriam-Webster's Latin-script kêdos is a scholarly representation of the Ancient Greek headword κῆδος, not a second Ancient Greek lexeme. The reviewed graph preserves that source form as an editorial-transliteration node linked to the Greek-script noun, while the complete lexical dossier remains κῆδος.

THE PROMOTION CONTRACT
A MENTION IS NOT A DOSSIER.
Resolve the word, language, sense, and canonical headword node without collapsing homographs.
Build an ordered path whose every edge names form change, meaning change, scholar, confidence, and source.
Attach a source-reported historical occurrence or directly inspected object with an explicit evidence limit.
Cite every geographic and temporal stage; withhold points and years the evidence cannot support.
Publish competing analyses as separate positions instead of averaging them into false consensus.
Keep descending until the reviewed evidence reaches an explicit knowledge boundary.
