+## Conventions
+- Keep source artefacts alongside transcribed markdown notes where practical.
+- Prefer one note per source document or tightly related record set.
+- Preserve uncertainty honestly rather than over-cleaning handwritten or ambiguous historical material.
+- Add new entries in chronological catalogue order where possible.
