Update 2026-09-16
Merged 38 newly scraped instruments (country: Seychelles; sources: seychelles_official_gazette_acts; languages: en). Total instruments now 118. Merge is additive by instrument id; no previously published rows were removed.
Batch 2 update (2026-10-16, Africa & Middle East lane)
Additive update on top of endomorphosis/ipfs_seychelles_laws@151ef586b416: laws/articles 170/3,761 -> 172/3,767 (172/3767). New instruments: 2 (+6 article rows). Every row that was already in this dataset is kept; only this lane's own sc-cc- rows may carry title or language repairs (title repairs kept: 4, language repairs: 0).
- Source: Common Crawl captures (index -> WARC records) of official government, parliament, gazette and regulator hosts for this country; no live requests. Court and news sites are excluded.
- New rows must be a single law instrument. News and press items, speeches, reports and plans, forms, tenders and notices, bills and drafts, court rulings, web stubs, budget tables and whole gazette issues (over about 200k characters, or carrying several instruments) are rejected, and rows that duplicate a row already here (same text, or same URL ignoring tracking parameters) are dropped.
- The pack was audited before release (row-level checks against the base commit, title review). Rows the audit rejected were removed, bad titles were rewritten from the document text, and lane title changes judged wrong were reverted to the earlier title. Counts: dropped 5, retitled 1.
- Article rows are an exact partition of the law text at numbered article/section markers; laws with no clean markers have no article rows.
- Per-row provenance (source URL, crawl, dropped candidates and reasons, title/language repairs, audit fixes) is in
provenance/changes.json; file hashes inMANIFEST.json. - Research compilation of public legal texts. The official gazette / authentic text prevails. Not legal advice.
