VERTICAL-VIDEO TESTED-ENVELOPE WORKSHEET
Original copyable checklist by Alfred

LIFECYCLE STATE
ARTIFACT ROLE: ORIGINAL PUBLIC TEMPLATE; COMPLETION IS NOT RELEASE APPROVAL

PURPOSE
Replace a generic safe-zone rectangle with a versioned review of the exact
candidate, scenes, elements, occluders, viewer states, and acceptance rules.
This worksheet records bounded evidence. It does not prove universal
legibility, destination behavior, upload, publication, reach, or performance.

USE BOUNDARY
- Use original, licensed, consented, or explicitly synthetic material only.
- Do not enter personal data, account details, credentials, private paths,
  customer material, or unredacted destination screenshots.
- Stop when a test requires a password, CAPTCHA, identity check, payment,
  legal acceptance, or other user-presence gate.
- Label local simulation separately from observed destination evidence.
- Keep NOT_TESTED and UNCERTAIN states open; never convert them to PASS.
- Bind every result to one immutable candidate revision or byte identity.

EVIDENCE VOCABULARY
PASS          Required check completed within its declared scope.
FAIL          Required check completed and acceptance criteria were not met.
BLOCKED       Required check could not proceed because a prerequisite failed.
NOT_TESTED    No eligible evidence was collected for the declared state.
SUPERSEDED    Historical evidence exists but a relevant change invalidated it.
UNCERTAIN     Evidence exists but cannot support a reliable scoped decision.

CLEAR          No prohibited overlap; declared buffer remains.
TOUCHING_LIMIT No overlap, but a required buffer is consumed.
OCCLUDED       A prohibited intersection exists.
NOT_MEASURED   Geometry was not established.
STALE          Element, scene, occluder, viewport, or candidate changed.

C. ELEMENT-ROLE REGISTER
======================================================================

Classify meaning before measuring geometry.

ROLE DEFINITIONS
ESSENTIAL     Coverage changes or removes the message, warning, instruction,
              number, unit, negation, label, evidence, or required disclosure.
SUPPORTING    Improves understanding but is repeated through another reviewed
              channel.
NAVIGATIONAL  Helps establish sequence, correspondence, or location.
DECORATIVE    May disappear without changing meaning, order, attribution,
              disclosure, or required action.

Repeat this record for every visible element.

Role-register review:
[ ] Every essential item has a stable identifier.
[ ] Small words, signs, units, punctuation, and state labels were classified.
[ ] Role was not inferred from size, color, or screen position.
[ ] Disclosure and attribution have explicit roles.
[ ] Repeated information names the independently reviewed alternate channel.
[ ] Decorative classification cannot hide a required meaning dependency.

              supplied by the destination.
SYSTEM        Browser chrome, system bars, accessibility controls, or viewer UI.
TEMPLATE      Recurring disclosure, attribution, caption, or series surfaces.
CONTENT       Scene-specific captions, pointers, labels, diagrams, or animation.

Repeat this record for every applicable occluder and viewer state.

H. GEOMETRY MATRIX
======================================================================

Create one row for each required element × occluder × viewer-state combination.

notes:

Geometry-matrix review:
[ ] Every essential element has every applicable required-state row.
[ ] Bounds came from the exact reviewed frame or declared model.
[ ] Required buffers were declared before interpreting the result.
[ ] TOUCHING_LIMIT is not silently converted to CLEAR.

Meaning-review guardrails:
[ ] Meaning was assessed separately from pixel intersection.
[ ] Required text was reviewed at the declared display size.
[ ] No universal comprehension claim is made.
[ ] Alternate audio or caption channels were reviewed before being credited.
[ ] A covered warning, unit, negation, label, or disclosure blocks approval.

notes:

Temporal-review guardrails:
[ ] The complete candidate was reviewed, not only sampled stills.
[ ] Readability duration was declared for this item, not borrowed universally.
[ ] Caption changes were reviewed in combined playback.
[ ] A single clear frame was not treated as duration evidence.
[ ] Terminal content remained readable through its required interval.

Temporal result: PASS | FAIL | BLOCKED | NOT_TESTED | UNCERTAIN

======================================================================
K. COMBINED-SURFACE REVIEW
======================================================================

[ ] Picture review uses the exact candidate revision.
[ ] Narration review uses the exact audio revision.
[ ] Attached or burned-in captions use the exact caption revision.
[ ] Disclosure and attribution are present and readable.
[ ] Opening, densest, fastest, and terminal surfaces were reviewed.
[ ] Longest caption and closest edge approach were reviewed.
[ ] Template and destination models were applied together where eligible.
[ ] Rights and privacy status remain current.
[ ] No component approval from another candidate substitutes for integration.
[ ] Local review is not described as processed-destination evidence.

[ ] 05 Unobserved states remain NOT_TESTED or UNCERTAIN.
[ ] 06 Simulated and observed-destination evidence are not conflated.
[ ] 07 The baseline envelope is versioned.
[ ] 08 Every distinct composition has a scene envelope.
[ ] 09 The smallest declared review viewport is included.
[ ] 10 Captions-off and dense-caption states are both exercised.
[ ] 11 Opening, densest, edge-near, and terminal scenes are reviewed.
[ ] 12 Clearance is checked per essential element rather than averaged.
[ ] 13 Meaning is reviewed separately from coordinate intersection.
[ ] 14 Units, negation, labels, attribution, and disclosure remain intact.
[ ] 15 Complete playback covers temporal collisions and boundaries.
[ ] 16 Required readable intervals are declared and observed.
[ ] 17 Failures produce a repair and scoped recheck rather than a silent waiver.
[ ] 18 Changes invalidate affected evidence and create a current revision.
[ ] 19 Superseded records remain historical rather than current approval.
[ ] 20 Local envelope review is not described as upload or publication evidence.

- Any required NOT_TESTED or UNCERTAIN state produces
  HOLD_FOR_MISSING_EVIDENCE unless the state was explicitly excluded before
  review with a justified scope boundary.
- Any relevant post-review change produces SUPERSEDE_AND_REVIEW_AGAIN.
- PASS means only that the declared local or observed scope passed.
- This record never authorizes upload, publication, promotion, or outreach.

P. PUBLIC-RELEASE SEPARATION
======================================================================

This worksheet ends at a bounded review decision. A separate release record must
establish all applicable authority, rights, privacy, disclosure, destination,
processing, rendition, metadata, visibility, and logged-out verification gates.

[ ] No upload is claimed.
[ ] No processing result is claimed.
[ ] No destination rendition is claimed unless separately observed.
[ ] No public URL is claimed.
[ ] No audience, engagement, conversion, customer, or revenue result is claimed.
[ ] No universal device or destination compatibility is claimed.
[ ] The current state remains NOT_PUBLIC.
