  "THE STANDARD HELD. Core and Extension, IIM and XMP, the 2025.1 release and its AI properties are the IPTC's own (cards 2, 3 and 5). Checked 2026-10-29 against the provenance census record of the same day and the sources it saved.",
  "THE ADDRESS NAMES THE STANDARD; THE RECORD IS THE TESTS. The census row at this name is the IPTC Photo Metadata Working Group's tests of what platforms do to embedded metadata: Pexels, pixabay and Unsplash stripped it from saved and downloaded files, Flickr replaced the embedded creator with the account owner (2019). None of this is in the composition. At the bare name the Overview composes the carrier and leaves out the measurement of its erasure.",
  "'SEARCH ENGINES READ EMBEDDED IPTC DATA'. The composition says search engines read the data 'to display creator information and licensing attributes directly in search results', from IPTC's Google Images pages. Those pages say Google displays three IPTC fields 'wherever available', and warn that an 'asset management system, content management system, image management system or content delivery network may be stripping out embedded metadata fields'. The composition widens Google's display to search engines in general and drops the warning on the pages it drew on. (Repaired 2026-10-29: the finding had said the IPTC's tests record the data 'often gone before any engine can read it'; the 2019 tests measured image-sharing platforms, and the hosting pipelines Google Images reads from were outside them.)",
  "THE AI FIELDS GIVEN AS PROVENANCE. 'AI & Content Provenance' is the composition's heading for the 2025.1 properties; the IPTC announcement (card 5, 27 November 2025) gives them as properties of AI-generated content."
