What still needs work

- Player reports are not tested results. Rafoli updates the game every day or two, so behaviour can change.
How updates are reviewed
Sources are linked to the guides that depend on them in Kingy’s review pipeline. A source change requests an editorial review; it does not automatically rewrite the guide or advance its edit date. Automated source checks are separate from a substantive guide review.
