Field notes

Debrief organizes article analysis into six sections adapted from Psychology of Intelligence Analysis and publicly described CIA structured-analytic techniques. Its sample markup separates a council’s nine-to-four vote from the article’s characterization of that result, then asks questions such as who funded the campaign and what standard applies. The page says readers can paste raw text when a source is behind a paywall or login.
