Notes on this record
NOT A DEATH. Verified 2 September 2026 against Wikipedia, "Robert O. Work", fetched that day, which gives his tenure as Deputy Secretary of Defense as "May 1, 2014 - July 14, 2017". THE SOURCE AND THIS FILE DISAGREE BY THIRTEEN DAYS: the end recorded here is 2017-07-01. The month is corroborated and the day is not, so end_precision is "month" and the page will say the day is not established rather than print one nobody can source. The date itself is left alone - changing it is an editorial decision. The article records him on the Special Competitive Studies Project board as of October 2023 and carries no death notice: HE IS LIVING. RECORDED GRADE: fetched secondary source, not a primary document read by eye. It is recorded so a reader can check it, and it is the same grade as the fourteen death dates already on this map.
