self-governing, provenance-first repository for machine-mediated scholarship—built around a “sovereign”…
Why it surfacedThis site has a strong, specific editorial voice and a clear, unusual premise: it was founded in response to a documented mass removal of scholarly works/DOIs, and it responds with explicit governance principles (no automated obelus/judgment, substrate disclosure as provenance, no classifier training without opt-in).

The homepage structure (Recent Deposits, Founding Principles, Identifiers, Deposit Schema, How to Deposit, Scope) and the presence of multiple deep links (principles, wiki, graph, manifest, Zenodotus/issue references, and an API-like “I AM THE API”) suggest an intentional, navigable project rather than a thin landing page.
