It means a human checked the cited sources and the published claim set. It does not mean a named PoloSolo contributor personally visited the destination unless the page says so.
How a page reaches “manually reviewed”
- Critical claims are tied to official or clearly identified sources.
- A human opens those sources, records the checked date and tests the page against the source text.
- Unsupported details are withheld, qualified or returned to research in progress.
- Transport, price and advisory claims are scheduled for another review.
Current Lisbon disclosure
The Lisbon decision brief is a desk-researched guide built from manually checked official sources. It has no named first-hand Lisbon contributor yet, so PoloSolo does not present local anecdotes or a personal visit as evidence. That limitation is intentional and will remain visible until a contributor can be named and scoped.
