Direct answer
Section Locator, in this protocol, 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.
Protocol
Present steps in order with required inputs, outputs, stop conditions, and a rollback or correction path.
A protocol is reproducible only to the extent that its inputs, versions, assumptions, and decision rules are fixed.
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 protocol, 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 protocol 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.
