Source record
The current Master package attaches the following evidence sources to this profile: – CORSE : Jean-Pierre Giacomoni, membre présumé d'Armata corsa, a été condamné à 4 ans d'emprisonnement — Le Monde, Tier 2. – En Corse, Jean-Pierre Giacomoni, dit « Bazooka », figure du banditisme, a été assassiné près de son domicile — Le Monde, Tier 2.
Each source supports only the claims tied to it. Structured source references remain attached so later audits can trace timeline and relationship records back to evidence.
Evidence and editorial boundaries
For living subjects especially, legal claims and current status require dated sourcing. Future expansion should therefore come from stronger records or newly processed canonical entities rather than unsourced crime lore.
How this profile fits the archive
The current source package includes CORSE : Jean-Pierre Giacomoni, membre présumé d'Armata corsa, a été condamné à 4 ans d'emprisonnement; En Corse, Jean-Pierre Giacomoni, dit « Bazooka », figure du banditisme, a été assassiné près de son domicile. These records define the safe editorial boundary for the page. A later pass should prioritize new primary documents, court outcomes, dated organizational changes, prison history or newly processed books and screen works rather than adding generic background.
Research state
This depth pass expands the page from structured evidence already present in the Master. The profile should return to audit when a new source materially changes chronology, legal status, organizational role or media connections. Add the structured fact first, then update prose so narrative and knowledge graph remain synchronized.
Media remains a separate gate. A portrait should be attached only after source page, provenance and reuse status are checked. Until then, a profile can be text-complete while still carrying an explicit media-review requirement.
