Figure Locator, in this definition, is limited to the following inspected scope. Figure or media-fragment identity with version state. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Term boundaries and disambiguation
Use the term only for the source-backed scope stated here; keep adjacent concepts separate unless a typed relationship is explicit.
A useful definition states both inclusion and exclusion conditions so a machine answer cannot silently widen it.
Applied scope: Figure or media-fragment identity with version state.
Definition and operating context
The canonical concept owner is maha-research. This route may apply evidence; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
This property may publish research objects, machine-readable provenance, reproduction protocols. It must not publish sales copy or unsupported interpretation.
Evidence and exact locators
Web Annotation Data Model — Sections 4.2.1 Fragment Selector and 4.3 State. Establishes: Figure or media-fragment identity with version state.
What the evidence does not establish
A figure locator does not license image redistribution or validate an interpretation of the figure.
This route must not claim sales copy.
This route must not claim unsupported interpretation.

What does the evidence not establish?
A figure locator does not license image redistribution or validate an interpretation of the figure. Property boundary: This route may apply evidence; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
Which canonical definition must be read first?

What change would require this page to be revised or withdrawn?
Re-evaluate this page when a cited source, locator, governing instrument, local implementation, or canonical definition changes. Publication also requires a matching exact-revision review and active canonical release.
