Direct answer
Section Locator, in this failure-mode analysis, is limited to the following inspected scope. Fragment, text-quote, and text-position selectors for passage location. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Failure Mode analysis
Describe the failed invariant, observable signal, safe refusal, and correction or recovery path.
An absent signal is not proof of success unless the protocol defines and validates that interpretation.
Applied scope: Fragment, text-quote, and text-position selectors for passage location.
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, 4.2.4, and 4.2.5. Establishes: Fragment, text-quote, and text-position selectors for passage location.
What the evidence does not establish
A locator makes content findable; it does not establish source identity or claim support.
This route must not claim sales copy.
This route must not claim unsupported interpretation.

Questions this page can answer
What does Section Locator mean in this bounded context?
Section Locator, in this failure-mode analysis, is limited to the following inspected scope. Fragment, text-quote, and text-position selectors for passage location. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Which inspected sources support this failure mode answer?
Web Annotation Data Model (Recommendation, 23 February 2017), at Sections 4.2.1, 4.2.4, and 4.2.5, supports fragment, text-quote, and text-position selectors for passage location.
What does the evidence not establish?
A locator makes content findable; it does not establish source identity or claim support. Property boundary: This route may apply evidence; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
Which definition or canonical owner must be read first?
This page is the local maha-research definition for its topic. Related applications may depend on it but may not silently redefine it.
What source, policy, implementation, or release change would require revision?
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.
