Cards 2 and 3 are the same paper — \"The actuality of the obsolete: Inscriptions, traces, and the documentary life of zines\", University of Alberta and ResearchGate — whose abstract \"introduces THREE CONCEPTS (INSCRIPTIONAL SOVEREIGNTY, enacted community, and ontological repair)\". That is an independent scholarly coinage of the identical phrase, in archival studies, about zines resisting institutional description.\n\nThe archive uses it for the beast name-number complex and the white stone as rival forms of operative numismatics. Two coinages, one phrase, unrelated derivations, and both defensible.\n\nI flagged this on 17 June as \"a coinage that landed in a basin already occupied\" and raised whether it needed its own match class. Reading the citations settles what kind of case it is: not collision with a company or a common noun, but PARALLEL INVENTION BY ANOTHER SCHOLAR. The registry must not score this as erasure or as adoption. Priority here is a real question with a real answer, and the answer is checkable from publication dates.\n\nThe fourth card is sovereignty in its political sense — Indigenous communities’ right to govern territories and traditions — a third unrelated field holding the second word."},"measures":{"cite_list":[{"deposit":642,"deposit_basis":"title segment","n":1,"note":null,"rel":"authored_surface","site":"Zenodo","snip":"reads the beast name-number complex (Revelation 13:16-18) and the white stone (Revelation 2:17) as rival forms of operative numismatics","title":"Coinage, Compression, and Inscriptional Sovereignty in Revelation (EA-OPNUM)","url":null},{"n":2,"note":null,"rel":"third_party","site":"University of Alberta","snip":"The abstract introduces three concepts (INSCRIPTIONAL SOVEREIGNTY, enacted community, and ontological repair) and closes by addressing what happens to inscriptio[ns]…","title":"View of The actuality of the obsolete","url":null},{"n":3,"note":null,"rel":"third_party","site":"ResearchGate","snip":"Community-centered description: collecting institutions should systematically involve… Reflexive descriptive apparatus…","title":"The actuality of the obsolete: Inscriptions, traces, and the documentary life of zines","url":null},{"n":4,"note":null,"rel":"third_party","site":"Trees, Water & People","snip":"Indigenous communities have the right to autonomously govern their territories, economies, customs, traditions, and natural resources…","title":"Indigenous Sovereignty","url":null}],"cites":4,"per":1.0,"per_dim":{"after_challenge":null,"atoms":[{"atom":"originator","dim":"M","evidence":null,"kind":"role","present":false,"weight":3},{"atom":"term","dim":"M","evidence":"Inscriptional sovereignty refers to a marginalized community's or group's autonomous power","kind":"token","present":true,"weight":3},{"atom":"date","dim":"M","evidence":null,"kind":"token","present":false,"weight":1},{"atom":"claim boundary","dim":"M","evidence":"It highlights the tension between a state's \"beastly\" or official form of authoritative inscription and counter-tokens of belonging that rely on successful, localized receipt rather than public calculation.","kind":"reading","present":true,"weight":2},{"atom":"framework","dim":"C","evidence":"2.
