Materialization rule: - use SRC-LD10-AGARWAL-SEN-2026 for the atomic field-6 citation “Agarwal & Sen, SSRN 6513059, revised 8 Jul 2026”; - preserve the locked Claim text and all 25 fields; - preserve WORKING_PAPER as the bibliographic/source class; - the 8 July 2026 date is the external working-paper revision named by the locked ledger, not a SocioLens Source record_version; - SocioLens record_version/current/visibility semantics remain governed by v0.3; - no later external revision may silently replace this pinned proof evidence without explicit authority.
