Generated draft, first pass

This model was drafted by rule from what the registry knows about the thing. It proposes which bundles a real model will need and which questions research must answer. It is not researched and no sentence in it is sourced.

6 bundles · 12 layers · 14 findings · 38 questions

Identity, naming and classification How an agent tells one Śvetāmbara Terapanth from another, and a Śvetāmbara Terapanth from things that resemble it.

Recognition comes before every other claim. Without stable identity nothing else in the model can be trusted to be about the same thing twice.

Names and identifiers

The names this thing goes by and the identifiers that survive translation and time.

Preferred name, aliases and local names

Which name to use, which names mean the same thing, and which merely sound similar.

  1. What identifies and describes the name of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
  2. Who or what asserted this about the name of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
  3. What may an agent decide or do once the name of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth is known, and what must it refuse? action

Kind, parents and neighbouring kinds

The classes this thing belongs to and the ones it is next to.

  1. What identifies and describes the kind of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
  2. Who or what asserted this about the kind of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, by which method, and when was it true? provenance

  3. What may an agent decide or do once what distinguishes a Śvetāmbara Terapanth is known, and what must it refuse? action
State and lifecycle The states a Śvetāmbara Terapanth passes through and the events that move it between them.

Most decisions about a thing depend on what state it is in now, which is a claim with a time on it, not a property.

  1. What identifies and describes the lifecycle of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
  2. Who or what asserted this about the lifecycle of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, by which method, and when was it true? provenance

What is observed about a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, how often and by whom.

Observation record

How an observation of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth is recorded so that it can be superseded rather than overwritten.

  1. What identifies and describes an observation of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
  2. Who or what asserted this about an observation of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
  3. What may an agent decide or do once an observation of a Śvetāmbara Terapanth is known, and what must it refuse? action
People, roles and responsibility Who stands in what relation to a Śvetāmbara Terapanth.

Social things are defined by the relations people hold to them, and those relations change without the thing changing.

Roles and parties

  3. What may an agent decide or do once a role over a Śvetāmbara Terapanth is known, and what must it refuse? action

  3. What may an agent decide or do once responsibility for a Śvetāmbara Terapanth is known, and what must it refuse? action
Legal identity and mandate What Śvetāmbara Terapanth is in law and what it exists to do.

Legal identity survives changes of name, address, staff and premises, which is exactly why it must be recorded separately from all of them.

Legal form and registration

Form, register, identifiers and jurisdiction.

Registration and identifiers

What names this body unambiguously in law.

  1. What legal form does Śvetāmbara Terapanth take, in which register, under which identifier? definition
  2. What survives a rename, a merger or a move of premises, and what does not? boundary

Mandate and governing instrument

The purpose it is bound to and the document that binds it.

Mandate and its source

What it may do, and the instrument that says so.

  1. What is the mandate of Śvetāmbara Terapanth, and which founding or governing instrument grants it? provenance
  2. What lies outside the mandate, and what should an agent do when asked for it? action
Governance, membership and decision rights Who decides in Śvetāmbara Terapanth and who belongs to it.

Authority inside an organisation is held by roles, not people, and an agent needs to know which role can commit it.

Decision rights

Bodies, offices and what each may bind.

Who may bind the organisation

The offices that can commit it and their limits.

  1. Which bodies or offices of Śvetāmbara Terapanth may take which decisions, and up to what limit? definition

  2. What may a member do in its name, and what may they not? action

Who said it, on what evidence, and how strongly.

  1. What identifies and describes a claim about a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, and in what units or vocabulary? definition

What it is Derived, awaiting review

A social thing registered under SOC.ORG. The registry names it; this draft has not been given a definition yet.

Why it exists Derived, awaiting review

Give an agent a durable, checkable way to recognise a Śvetāmbara Terapanth, record what state it is in, and decide what may be done with it.

Distinguishing features Derived, awaiting review

  • Described in 4 Wikipedia languages, which is a measure of how widely the thing is known, not of how important it is.

What robots and AI may and may not do Derived, awaiting review

May

  • observe it, measure it, record its state

Direct properties not applicable Not applicable

  • Made of: a social arrangement between people

  • These come from the domain this entry sits in rather than from the entry itself, so treat them as a first guess about the whole domain applied to one thing.

Recognition optional Derived, awaiting review

  • Nothing to see. Recognised by name, register entry and the people acting in its name, and those change while it stays the same body.

Capabilities and actions required Derived, awaiting review

Standards and interfaces required Missing, in the backlog

Context of use required Derived, awaiting review
