Verification

Single source: 2 independent sources.

Verification describes the available evidence, not certainty that an event occurred.

One origin has reported this. That is not a sign it is wrong; nobody else has reported it yet.

What we know and what remains unclear

Each detail the reports give, by how many independent origins reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. Confidence in the event is not confidence in each detail. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
