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

  1. Version 4

    Source update — the underlying public record changed

    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 Spearfish's public agendas and minutes page](https://www.spearfish.gov/AgendaCenter). See the [corrections ledger](/corrections) if a field is wrong.
