Citation Is Not Truth: A Three-Metric Evaluation of an Extractive Research Pipeline

Automated excerpt

This pipeline's promise is that structural citation makes research trustworthy: no claim without a source, no source without a token-level check. A citation can be perfectly valid — right source, faithful quote, containment 1.0 — while the claim is fabricated, because the check compares the claim to the source, not the source to the world. The researcher's own planted claims carry source id 0 (or an id borrowed from a real source).
