Cryptograss:Connectome/Verifying ensembles/Mockup

A mockup of the verification screen, made from five real Live Music Archive items in which Kyle Tuttle is named. It's static: the buttons don't do anything yet. Every excerpt was copied from the item's metadata on 10 Nov 2026 and checked against it. See Cryptograss:Connectome/Live Music Archive for the survey this comes from, and Cryptograss:Connectome/Verifying ensembles for the spec.^[✓]

How to read a card: the license comes first, then the claim, then the scope, then each source's own words with the name in bold, and the buttons last. A greyed-out card is a trap: it's shown so a person sees why it's no connection, and it has no yes button.^[✓]

festival the same "Artists at Large" list appears on 7 bands' sets from that weekend: it's the festival's roster, not this set's lineup

Artists at Large :
Holly Bowling
Kyle Tuttle
Patrick Rainey

The same set's track list does have "04. Anders Banter - Kyle Tuttle Intro". That's a separate stage claim: he was introduced on that stage. It isn't evidence of which songs he played.

— description, lke2019-04-26.sbd

"Mandolin" is copied as written. No other of the 147 LMA items that name Kyle puts him on mandolin, and the line below him reads "Alex? - Banjo", so the two instruments may be swapped. The person verifying decides; the tool doesn't correct it.

✓ Yes, as written Yes, but on a different instrument… Not this

Name mapping

"Kyle Tuttle", as written on these 5 cards → Kyle Tuttle? ✓ Same person Someone else A mapping a person makes here is offered as a suggestion on other cards from the same band's collection, and nowhere else. One name can be two people, and the person confirms each card.
