How Little Headlines Perth checks change

• Primary: legislation, gazettes, court and tribunal records, regulator notices, council registers, agendas, minutes and government project pages.
• Authoritative data: official market, economic and administrative datasets.
• Reputable reporting: used for discovery, direct statements and context; attributed clearly.
• Social and reader tips: discovery leads only, never proof by themselves.

• Green: accessible primary evidence, neutral status and verified geography may publish after checks pass.
• Amber: credible reporting without accessible primary evidence is held for editorial review.
• Red: anonymous allegations, unsupported social posts or unverifiable claims are rejected from automatic publication.

• A new application, decision, hearing, formal response or official document.
• A changed deadline, status, condition or project milestone.
• A correction that changes the practical meaning of the record.
• Not a copied press release, repeated article or unchanged register entry.

Suburb, postcode and local government are stored separately. A postcode is never used alone to infer a council. Split-boundary suburbs require address-level qualification.

Healthy means the registered source was accessible during the last successful editorial check. Delayed means the source was accessible but appeared stale or incomplete. Unavailable means the source could not be retrieved during that check.

Health is a retrieval signal, not a guarantee that the underlying authority has published every relevant record.

Monitoring is expanding and is not guaranteed to be complete. Twenty suburb pages currently meet the deep-monitoring standard and are submitted for indexing. Other permanent pages remain noindex until their source coverage is substantive.
