Stable URLs & Time-Slice Convention

Per-slice (planned, ships with Phase 6 widgets)

When citing in stories, point readers to a dated slice (when available) rather than the moving canonical URL. Methodology version travels with every citation; if methodology revises to v1.1, your locked citation still verifies against the version you used.
