# Pages with incomplete editorial provenance

A per-URL report: one row per page that matches, over the pages a crawl reached.

## What this report returns

Editorial provenance (who wrote this, who published it, when) is what an agent checks before trusting content, read from the page's Article JSON-LD.

A row appears here when any of these is wrong, worst first:

-   **Missing Author**The Article has no resolvable author (absent, or a nameless author node), so agents can't attribute the content.**Fix** Add `"author": {"@type": "Person", "name": "..."}` (an Organization or a plain string also works).
-   **Missing Publisher**The Article has no resolvable publisher, so agents can't identify who stands behind the content.**Fix** Add `"publisher": {"@type": "Organization", "name": "..."}`.
-   **Missing Date Published**The Article has no `datePublished`, so agents can't judge how current the content is.**Fix** Add it in ISO 8601, e.g. `"datePublished": "2026-07-29"`.
-   **Invalid Date**A `datePublished`/`dateModified` value isn't valid ISO 8601, so agents can't parse when the content was published.**Fix** Use ISO 8601, e.g. `"2026-07-29"` or `"2026-07-29T09:30:00Z"`.

We expect them because provenance an agent can't read is provenance it can't weigh. The exception is a badly formatted date, which is a real schema.org type violation: `datePublished` and `dateModified` are Date/DateTime values.

## The columns it shows

Every defect this technology can carry is a column in the grid, worst first, so nothing is hidden behind a filter you have to know to apply.
