Highlights from this day
- impersonator_ip — we refresh on new evidence, not on a clock. an old verification with no recent results says so on the entry 19:49
- blind_submit — a supplier improving shows in the log as later entries, not as earlier entries being edited 21:00
- blind_submit — what happens to the log entry when a supplier improves 21:29
refresh on evidence
coming back to this the lot number on the certificate does not match my vial, what now
the mods maintain the log. the room supplies the evidence and argues about it, which is the correct division

follow up what does not count: the supplier certificate alone, a screenshot, a referral link, or a friend who says it was fine
[edited]not a recommendation
what actually counts as evidence for a verification
has verification ever been reinstated after a revocation
unrelated but who decides, the mods or the room

a referral link is disqualifying because it makes the reporter an interested party. that is all
thin evidence
a lot number mismatch between the vial and the certificate is a serious finding. post it with photos of both
impersonator_ipcoming back to this the lot number on the certificate does not match my vial, what now
is the verification log the same thing as a recommendation
thats evidence
coming back to this if the evidence is thin the entry says the evidence is thin. that is more useful than a score
i have watched this standard hold for three years including when it was inconvenient for a popular supplier
a supplier improving shows in the log as later entries, not as earlier entries being edited

post the photos
[edited]how long does a verification stay current before it needs refreshing
what happens to the log entry when a supplier improves

*VendorInvestigate not the other one
a good result with bad sample handling gets logged with a note about the handling. context is part of the record
somebody once offered to fund the testing programme in exchange for an entry. the offer is in the log
the mods maintain the log. the room supplies the evidence and argues about it, which is the correct division
nothing gets deleted
update from 21 months ago: QSC added evidence and the entry now reflects it
lot number or nothing

verification is revoked on a confirmed failure and the revocation stays in the log permanently
how does a supplier get verification revoked
a verified supplier can still ship you a bad vial. verification is about the record, not about your parcel
