Version history

Every published version of this article, newest first. Versions are append-only: a correction adds a row, it never rewrites history. Each version below states what changed against the version before it — which fields moved, and which body lines were added or removed.

The content hash is a SHA-256 fingerprint of that version's stored headline and body, computed when the version was written. Two versions with the same hash hold identical text; a changed hash proves the text moved. It is the tamper-evidence check — recompute it against an exported copy of a version and any silent edit shows up as a mismatch.

How we verify a hash — and how you can

Canonicalization: the hashed bytes are the version's stored headline, then the two characters ||, then the version's stored body markdown — UTF-8, SHA-256, lowercase hex. Nothing else is in the input: no normalization, re-wrapping or rendering is applied first, no trailing newline is added, and no other field (including the parent version's id) is mixed in.

Export a version's stored headline and body, join them with the two characters ||, and take the SHA-256 of the UTF-8 bytes. It must equal the hash printed beside that version. In a shell: 

printf '%s' "HEADLINE||BODY" | shasum -a 256

    Source update — the underlying public record changed

    This entry was filed before 605Buzz began recording its own wording changes separately. Its diff may also show wording changes 605Buzz made since the previous entry.

    Automated update from the source feed — no human edit

    The body text changed; the headline did not. (compared against version 3)

    • The portal marks that time UTC, and it is not: the city's own records contradict the mark, because the plain-English posting time the portal prints for this meeting's agenda states the same clock reading as the machine-readable field that claims to be UTC. The time above is therefore the local wall clock the city published, reproduced without conversion. South Dakota keeps two time zones — Central east of the Missouri River, Mountain west of it — so 605Buzz prints the city's own wall clock rather than converting it for anyone.
    • This article was assembled from [the City of Mitchell's public agendas and minutes page](https://www.cityofmitchellsd.gov/AgendaCenter). See the [corrections ledger](/corrections) if a field is wrong.
