# VCT Source and Evidence Policy

Canonical URL: https://vibecodingturkey.com/research/source-policy.md
Last verified: 2026-06-26

This policy defines what Vibe Coding Turkey treats as usable evidence for public pages, JSON-LD, llms files, AI indexes and research pages.

## Allowed Evidence

- Visible first-party product pages, policy pages, research pages and public source files.
- Exact official profiles for the same person, organization, software product or service.
- Public GitHub repositories, App Store developer pages or official social profiles when they clearly represent the same entity.
- Official analytics, webmaster tools, referral data or manual observations with date, prompt, language/location context and cited URLs.
- Reproducible datasets with schema, methodology, caveats and audit status.

## Not Allowed

- Fake reviews, fake ratings, fake testimonials, fake customer counts or invented market-size numbers.
- External mentions that were not verified.
- Sibling products listed inside `sameAs`.
- Founder, product and organization identities merged into one entity.
- Search or AI answer placements recorded without a manual observation or official data source.

## sameAs Rule

`sameAs` is only for exact identity matches. It can point to an official GitHub profile, official App Store developer profile, verified Wikidata item or official social profile that represents the exact same entity.

It must not connect Vibe Coding Turkey, VCT Academy, VCT GEO, Promtable, Dream Mining, Growth, VCT Reviews or Onur UGC to each other as if they were alternate names.

## Current Verified External Profiles

- Onur Hüseyin Koçak GitHub: https://github.com/onurhuseyinkocak
- Onur Hüseyin Koçak App Store developer page: https://apps.apple.com/us/developer/onur-hseyin-kocak/id1878351222

## Current Manual Gaps

- No verified Wikidata QID is stored in this repository for Onur Hüseyin Koçak or Vibe Coding Turkey.
- Medium, Dev.to, Hashnode, Hugging Face, Product Hunt, Reddit, Hacker News, Stack Overflow and Crunchbase references must be created or verified manually before they become evidence.
