Reference Hub
CITAQ needs reference routes because large public verification systems work better when their vocabularies, maps, and taxonomies stay inspectable.
This hub gathers the reference-facing side of the public graph: evidence types, claim types, identifiers, badge states, certificate types, schema maps, and route-taxonomy references that help humans and machines navigate the platform more precisely.
Reference pages are not filler. They support internal linking, SEO precision, route interpretation, and machine-readable discovery across a site that is growing into a few-hundred-route public system.
It connects documentation references, schema/discovery surfaces, and route-taxonomy materials into a coherent reference cluster.
Reference Families
The reference topics this hub should connect
Reference routes for the support artifacts and record classes that can anchor public claims.
Reference routes for the kinds of public assertions the system needs to model and constrain.
Identifier references matter where products, scans, and machine-readable routes need stable identity.
State references help make visible trust indicators interpretable instead of ambiguous.
Schema and route maps help connect public structured data to the larger site architecture.
Footer, menu, sitemap, and internal-linking references keep the public graph coherent as it scales.
Priority Routes
Open the main reference and taxonomy pages
Open the route for the public vocabulary of evidence-bearing inputs.
See the route for the public vocabulary of claim categories.
Use the route for identifiers that support product-level machine readability.
Inspect the route for the meaning of public trust-state indicators.
Open the map route for structured-data and route-family relationships.
See the route for how the public graph is meant to stay interconnected.
Connected Routes
Use the adjacent schema, policy, and discovery hubs
Open the schema-discovery route for route-level structured-data surfaces.
Use the human-readable route map for the broader graph that these reference materials support.
Return to the governance hub if you want the rules behind these references.
Use the evergreen glossary for a broader public vocabulary layer.
Browse the wider schema and reference graph through the verification directory system.
Open the directory route for badge-state interpretation and adjacent trust pages.
Use the directory route for evidence-related public references and docs.
Next Step
Open the policy center if you want the governance rules behind these references.
Reference routes help define the vocabulary and map layer, while policy routes explain how those materials should be used across the public site.
