Multi-Witness UFO & UAP Reports

Public AlienBox Earth Record dossiers with a structured witness count of two or more, or whose structured witness field explicitly states plural/multiple witnesses. Multiple observers add context; inclusion does not verify the reported event or interpretation and does not invent a headcount where the source supplied only a plural marker.

Fred // before you disappear into this folderMore witnesses can improve context. They do not combine like loyalty points into a free certainty upgrade.
Fred chose the filing path // inclusion never changes an evidence grade // every listed item is already a public Earth Record dossier // Lore is never used to qualify or rank a case
FRED // YOUR QUESTIONABLE GUIDE I know where the folders are. This should not be confused with approval of what you do after opening them.
