- Entity Criticality data quality warning: all_linked_entities_data_insufficient.
- no confidence-specificity evidence (actor entity, date, quantified value, or concrete verb)
- no matched Event type
- no actor entities (only attribution/metadata, if any)
- no actor content-derived geography
- single source only
- Entities were mentioned as context or document attribution rather than as actors in the reported development, so they did not increase Initial Confidence.
- Only source-level geography metadata was available.
- Source metadata did not contribute to Initial Confidence.
