Automation is useful for finding patterns across many public sources. It can identify a fast-moving headline, group related links, score freshness, and alert an editor that a story may deserve attention.
It is not allowed to turn a headline and one copied paragraph into a finished article. The public gate checks source links, formatting, approval status, text quality, article length, and whether the record contains enough original context to serve a reader.
Broken character encoding, generic category errors, duplicated boilerplate, empty pages, and unsourced claims stay backstage. A high viral score never overrides a failed editorial check.
