Point 7 of the page-wording review. The pages no longer show their data structure as headings, and they no longer explain their own conventions. - Level 1 is one screen: claim, status badge, three figures, the technology row, and one sentence carrying one link. Measured in headless Chrome at 1440x900: 1404-1845 px tall before, exactly 900 px (no scroll) after, on all six area pages. - DocPage: no kicker line, no visible level label, no "Evidence for this page" heading or instruction note, no "Drill-downs" list, no "Status <word> - sentence" footer. The artefact table starts at level 2, under the heading "Artefacts"; the history timeline is level 2 only. - Landing page: "Start here" link text gone, "How to read this site" panel gone, the footer's status-label explainer gone. - Content, presentation only, no claim softened: the leading H1 that duplicated the page title removed from all 41 documents; level 1 bodies reduced to the constraint as ordinary prose plus the way in; "**Status: ...**" prefixes removed from the artefact stubs; "## Drill-downs" and "## Period and confidence" removed from the level 2 pages, with the cross-area links moved into the prose. - The six level 1 claims are now sentences with a subject, and use commas instead of middots. Same facts, no new ones. Not in this commit: the 35 level 2 and 3 claims still use the compact CV style. That is a voice decision for Sam, not a wording tidy-up. make validate: 41 documents, 0 violations. go test ./...: pass. (cherry picked from commit 03009f80fc7815ad7719412e125df9297a6e653f)

The roles are final; the presentation lands in Phase 7.
|
||
|
||
## The roles
|
||
|
||
| Role | Where | What it involved |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| Chalet chef | Merribel, France | Meals for chalet guests, kitchen operations, menu planning, dietary requirements, in a high-pressure alpine season |
|
||
| Wine waiter | South Australia and Victoria | Premium wine regions, varietals, food pairing |
|
||
| Horseback tour guide | Victorian high country | Guided tours, rider safety, horse welfare, trail navigation |
|
||
| Stable construction | Mount Beauty, Victoria | A 24-bay stable build — project management, budgeting, hands-on construction |
|
||
| Civil servant | Victorian State Government, Melbourne | Administrative and operational support to state-level programs |
|
||
| Horse trainer and stable hand | Sunbury, Victoria | Care and training of thoroughbreds, exercise, grooming, race-day preparation |
|
||
|
||
## What it proves
|
||
|
||
That the engineering sits on a wider working life. Kitchen service and production incidents share a shape; guiding strangers on horses in the high country is risk management with consequences; a stable build is a budget and a schedule held by hand. These are the reasons the technical pages read as practical rather than academic.
|
||
|
||
## Why this is on a technical site
|
||
|
||
Because leaving it out would make the career look narrower than it is, and because the years it occupies are otherwise unexplained.
|
||
|
||
## Coverage limit
|
||
|

Descriptions are limited to what the résumé and the evidence notes corroborate. Roles, employers' towns and the type of work are stated; no employer is named beyond the region, and no claim is made about scale, revenue or headcount that the sources do not carry.
