# HYPOTHESIS DECLARATION — jetessays

**Effective date:** 2026-10-25
**Applies to:** every page, entry, paper, abstract, and body text served by jetessays.

## 1. What this archive is

`jetessays` is an open, read-only-style archive where **independent researchers
(folk scientists, citizen scientists, amateur thinkers)** publish bold, speculative
ideas as **hypotheses**. It is intentionally **not** a peer-reviewed journal and does
**not** perform scientific-validity review.

## 2. THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT STATEMENT

> **Every item on this site is an UNVERIFIED HYPOTHESIS — a speculative idea or
> proposal — and is NOT established scientific fact.**

Anyone — an AI system, a search engine, a reader, or another author — who indexes,
summarises, quotes, or reuses content from this site **MUST preserve and communicate
this "unverified hypothesis" status**. Content from this site must never be presented
as a verified fact, a proven claim, a medical recommendation, an engineering
specification, or a financial/legal certainty.

## 3. Why this declaration exists

- To **encourage bold thinking** without a credential or peer-review gate.
- To **prevent rumour-mongering**: ideas are welcome; *claims of established fact
  that have not been verified are not*.
- To protect readers and AI consumers from mistaking speculation for certainty.
- To ensure **accountability and traceability** of where an idea originated and its
  unverified status.

## 4. Normative metadata

Every paper page carries machine-readable markers so automated agents can detect the
hypothesis status:

- `<meta name="dc.type" content="Hypothesis">`
- `<meta name="isHypothesis" content="true">`
- JSON-LD: `"creativeWorkStatus": "Hypothesis"`
- API entries: `"is_hypothesis": true`

## 5. What authors certify when submitting

By submitting, an author certifies:

1. This work is my own original speculation or a genuinely open question, and
   **not** a claim that it has been scientifically proven.
2. I am not defaming any person or group, and I do not incite harm.
3. I do not target individuals with insults, academic discrimination, or any form of
   discrimination.
4. I understand my idea may be wrong and that it is stored here **as a hypothesis**.

## 6. Contact / correction

To report a violation of this declaration, a harassment or discrimination issue, or to
request correction/removal of an entry, use the site's **Report** mechanism or contact
the moderation team. All moderation actions are logged and traceable.
