Practice with three public tasks
Choose a procurement-record comparison, a media time-and-region check, or a data-version comparison. Each task states its expected result and when to stop.
Compare procurement records
Compare identifiers, amounts and dates across two public records. The task shows fields and a possible relationship; it does not establish misconduct.
- First, check what the source supports and which passage the link points to.
- Goal: check whether key fields agree across the records.
- If there is no answer or not enough material, record what is missing; that is also a result.
- Stop if there is no primary record or time-versioned copy.
Check media time and region
Compare publication time, material time and a top-level region. The result provides a bounded timeline and schematic map, not an exact location.
- Goal: check whether the times and broad region agree.
- Stop if timezone, rights or region level cannot be compared.
- Keep the conclusion within the precision supported by the time and geographic data.
Compare public-data versions
Compare two JSON, CSV or text snapshots and record the observed change. The service shows the difference but does not infer its cause.
- Goal: identify what changed between the versions.
- Stop if schema, period or data completeness cannot be compared.
- Choose a next step for your role: editorial review, fact-checking or research.
