Save it here, or it does not count.
What this is
This desk is for the first hour. Write one question, save what you find, download a copy you keep. Only what you save here can go in the report. Lookups open official registers. They do not invent the rest of the world.
The full standard is on Method.
Who it is for
Anyone who needs a first hour done properly: a question, a source, a copy they hold. A novice can finish that hour.
What it is not
Not a newsroom. Not Hunchly. Not Pinpoint. Not Aleph. Not Datashare.
It will not search ten thousand PDFs. It will not put original files on someone else’s server.
For a leak dump, use Datashare on a computer. The question stays here.
If we got something wrong
Open Corrections. That page is for this app’s own copy — not for your investigation.
