Ready rules

Do not advance weak rows

Gate

Every queued lead needs an advertiser-owned or official evidence URL before scoring.

Gate

A row must score at least 18 out of 25 before it can be marked ready_for_editorial_approval.

Gate

Financial, legal, property-performance, education, health, child-focused, alcohol, discount and scarcity wording stays manual_review_required even when the numeric score is strong.

Gate

Rows without a practical local CTA stay research_only.

Gate

approved_to_contact is only valid after David/editor approval is recorded outside this static site.
