Field notes
The object wall assigns numbered tags, dates, categories, and running-time estimates; its entries range from a Bryant furnace to calculators and hand tools. The ledger gives each change a before-and-after account and a verdict prompt. Some displayed vote attempts carry the message “Didn't go through. Try again,” so the extract confirms the voting interface, not that votes are being recorded.
