# ARCHIVE — Superseded Documentation (READ ONLY)

> **READ-ONLY / HISTORICAL.** Everything indexed here is superseded by
> `GEOMETRIC_SUBSTANCE_CANONICAL.md` (2026-06). It is retained only for
> traceability — to show where a term or framing came from across earlier
> conceptual revisions. **Do not use anything below as current doctrine.**

The canonical document reconciled the forked vocabulary by mechanism. The
definitions recorded here are the *prior, conflicting* versions it replaced.

---

## A. Quarantined now — canonical owns their entire purpose

These docs exist solely to define vocabulary / name concepts that the canonical
document now defines better. They are moved to
`6-Documentation/docs/_superseded/2026-06/` by `archive_superseded.sh`,
each with a read-only banner prepended.

| Archived doc | What it asserted (now superseded) | Replaced by |
|---|---|---|
| `6-Documentation/docs/VOCABULARY_LOCK.md` | DIAT = "Dynamic Integer-Address Transform"; NUVMAP = "Non-Uniform Variable Mapping (2D spectral projection)" → `Semantics.NUVMATH`; PIST = "Perfectly Imperfect Square Theory" | Canonical §4 (the new lock), §1 |
| `0-Core-Formalism/otom/docs/nuvmap/NUVMAP_NAMING_AND_DEFINITION.md` | NUVMAP = "Non-Uniform Virtual Memory Address Projection" | Canonical §4 (NUVMAP + PhiNUVMAP entries) |

**Why these and not the Lean files:** the implementation (`.lean`) is the source
of truth and stays put. Only the *naming/lock* docs — whose grasp the canonical
reconciliation has fully absorbed — are quarantined.

---

## B. Review candidates — mixed content, your call

Each of these carries some superseded vocabulary **plus** content that may still
be live (engineering guidance, other notation, dated records). Archiving the
whole file would bury the still-good parts, so they are *not* auto-quarantined.
Recommendation per doc below; enable any of them in `archive_superseded.sh` once
confirmed, or update the stale rows in place instead.

| Candidate doc | Stale element | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| `0-Core-Formalism/otom/docs/wiki/NotationNomenclatureRegistry.md` | DIAT = "Dual-Interval Algebraic Transform"; NUVMAP = "spectral pixel/state container" | Broad registry — **update the two rows in place**, point them at canonical §4; do not archive wholesale |
| `6-Documentation/docs/WEIRD_CONCEPTS_GLOSSARY.md` | Defines the "weird concepts" the canonical doc reconciled and tiered | Likely superseded for the reconciled terms — **read and confirm**, then archive or update |
| `6-Documentation/docs/GLOSSARY.md`, `6-Documentation/wiki/Glossary.md`, `obsidian-vault/00-MAP/Glossary.md` | Carry old DIAT/NUVMAP/PIST entries | Glossaries with many entries — **update the affected entries**, don't archive |
| `0-Core-Formalism/otom/docs/nuvmap/NUVMAP_DESIGN_REFLECTIONS.md` | Uses superseded NUVMAP naming | Naming is stale but the *design reasoning* may be live — **read before deciding** |
| `0-Core-Formalism/otom/docs/nuvmap/NUVMAP_ENCODING_DOS_AND_DONTS.md` | Uses superseded NUVMAP naming | Engineering dos/don'ts may still hold — **keep unless content is obsolete** |
| `6-Documentation/docs/semantics/BHOCS.md`, `6-Documentation/docs/semantics/AMMR_NODE_REDEFINITION.md`, `6-Documentation/docs/semantics/RG_FLOW_DEFINITION.md` | Reference reconciled terms | Unread here — **triage individually** |
| `6-Documentation/docs/reports/adaptive_analysis_2026-05-11.md` and other dated reports | Use old vocabulary | **Leave as-is** — dated reports are point-in-time records, already historical by nature |
| `6-Documentation/wiki/Concept-Archive.md` | — | **Leave** — already an archive |

## C. Method

- **Non-destructive.** `archive_superseded.sh` uses `git mv` + a prepended banner;
  nothing is deleted, history is preserved, and the content stays readable.
- **Conservative.** Only docs whose entire purpose the canonical doc absorbs are
  quarantined automatically. Mixed-content docs are listed, not buried, because a
  doc that is 80% live should not be flagged dead over a stale definition.
- **Reversible.** `git mv` back, or strip the banner, restores any file.

> **Gitignore note.** This repo's `.gitignore` line 120 (`**/archive/`) ignores
> *every* `archive/` directory (those are offloaded to Gdrive, line 114). So the
> archive deliberately uses `_superseded/`, **not** `archive/`, to stay tracked in
> git as readable read-only history. If you would rather these be offloaded like
> other archives, point `DEST` at an `archive/` path — the script will warn that
> the files become untracked.

To run (from the repo root):

```bash
bash archive_superseded.sh
git status        # review the moves
git commit -m "Archive vocabulary docs superseded by GEOMETRIC_SUBSTANCE_CANONICAL"
