Evidence Policy

Evidence policy

Technical reliability content is only useful when readers can distinguish platform-documented behavior from recommendations, examples and inference.

Preferred source order

  1. Official platform documentation for current product behavior.
  2. Primary security guidance for security controls and threat boundaries.
  3. Peer-reviewed or standards-based research when the topic requires broader technical evidence.
  4. Community reports for problem discovery, not as sole proof of a technical requirement.

How claims are labeled in practice

A platform requirement should only be described as a requirement when the source supports that wording.

A recommended design pattern is presented as a recommendation, not as a universal rule.

A troubleshooting possibility is treated as a hypothesis until the execution evidence supports it.

Version-sensitive content

Automation platforms change quickly. Articles should preserve the source URL and describe product-specific behavior narrowly.

When a platform changes authentication, limits, execution handling or UI behavior, the affected guide should be reviewed instead of leaving old instructions in place.

What is not acceptable evidence

  • Invented statistics or benchmark results.
  • Unverified social posts presented as technical fact.
  • Screenshots without enough context to identify the platform state.
  • Claims copied from secondary articles when a primary source is available.
  • A single successful run used to prove a reliability guarantee.

Self-Hosted n8n Keeps Crashing: What Evidence to Collect

" Operations and recovery A self-hosted workflow platform adds infrastructure failure modes to workflow failure modes. Changing container settings, database state and workflow logic at the same time makes diagnosis harder. Resolution rule Change one boundary at a time. Preserve the failing evidence, apply the smallest safe correction, then replay the known case and check the business effect as well as the technical run status. Contents What the symptom actually proves Evidence to collect before changing the workflow Likely failure paths Resolution sequence Prevention design Verify the fix Decision table Sources and scope What the symptom actually proves A self-hosted workflow platform adds infrastructure failure modes to workflow failure modes. Changing container settings, database state and workflow logic at the same time makes diagnosis harder. A useful diagnosis begins by separating what is directly observed from what is only suspected.
