Use the data, with the scope attached

The CSV provides one row per story, including title, category, specialty, date, word count, tags, and provenance. Cite it as an analysis of the DoctorsAndMiracles.com web editorial corpus as of 2026-01-01.

Next editorial decisions

  1. Increase depth in themes represented by only one or two stories before expanding the dominant unexplained-phenomena cluster.
  2. Separate verified submitted accounts or book-derived cases into their own provenance classes only after documentation and permission are confirmed.
  3. Track reader questions and submission patterns so future reports can analyze genuine audience demand instead of editorial supply alone.

Caveats and assumptions

Word counts are calculated from Markdown body text and may differ slightly from a word processor. Categories and specialties are editorial labels. Publication dates are the dates stored in each page's front matter. This report does not validate factual assertions inside each story.
