0006 Confirmation stamps only by people granted the right; administrators only on records the depositor entrusts to them
The Korean version is authoritative. This page was translated by AI (Claude) and has not yet been checked by a person. 한국어 원문
- A confirmation stamp (raising an interpretation to “confirmed”) is applied only by people who have been granted the confirmation stamp right for that record.
- By default, these are the depositor and human editors.
- The administrator (Nodeone) sees interpretations and applies stamps only when the depositor has granted permission to see that record’s interpretive layer. The stamp is recorded under the administrator’s name. The administrator still cannot see the original. The depositor can withdraw this at any time.
- AI still cannot apply stamps.

Documents updated: 01-Permissions sections 2, 3 and 4 (v0.2), 03-manifest sections 3 and 11, 05-Glossary.
- Decision of the head of Nodeone (2026-10-12): “Only those with the right permissions, such as editors, depositors and administrators.” The wording was proposed by the common rules session and confirmed again with the head of Nodeone in this session.
- 01-Permissions v0.1 said the administrator is “designed so it cannot see content”, so there was no way for the administrator to apply a stamp. Opening an exception only for records the depositor entrusts does not break “does not act without the depositor’s instruction” (HGP-0005 section 4) or principle 3 (originals only with the owner’s key).
- Today, the head of Nodeone applies stamps as the confirmer for arkive’s old documents. This work fits exactly into an administrator stamp entrusted by the depositor.
- If each stamp records its capacity (
as), we can later tell whether “this confirmed version was seen by the depositor, or by someone they entrusted”.
Other options
Section titled “Other options”| Option | Why not chosen |
|---|---|
| Only the depositor and human editors (01 v0.1 as it was) | Differs from the decision of the head of Nodeone |
| Let the administrator always apply stamps | The administrator would see all interpretations. It conflicts with principle 3 and 01-Permissions section 1 item 4 |
