Why every answer shows its source

What the citation under each answer is for, and what happens when there is no source to show.

The source under each answer is not decoration β€” it is the thing that had to exist before the answer could be given. An answer with no page behind it is not offered at all.

What this means in practice

  • It can be wrong the way your own page can be wrong β€” an out-of-date price gets quoted as the price. The shown source is how you find which page to fix.
  • When it does not know, it says so and hands the person to you β€” your hours, or how to reach you. That is the behaviour, not a setting.
  • It reads and answers by default β€” a question that needs the diary or the till gets handed to a person rather than guessed at. The only exception is an action the owner deliberately published, and those run under the consent rules in connect from an agent: explicit permission from the person, or a pre-authorised one.
