Two park layers, graded per claim

Who says so

There are a great many pages about the Society of Explorers and Adventurers, and a great many more about Hidden Mickeys. Almost none of them tell a reader, claim by claim, whether Disney says it or somebody else does. That is the only thing these pages do, and they do it on every row.

Nothing on these pages is ranked, scored or counted down. The bands say what the record does, never how good anything is.

The arithmetic, in public

Rows left with no support at all

84 current, 30 removed, 12 the catalogue itself flags for re-checking

Both workbooks are marked LEAD. In this house research is a lead until the operator's page is opened, and neither workbook is treated as evidence anywhere on these pages. What the house adds in its own right is two registers it holds: 1,304 pages of the operator's own site captured on 2026-09-08, and 171 printed guide maps whose dates run from 1977-12 to 2026-07-01.

Five pages

The limits this record keeps

Both workbooks carry hand-written limits on how far each claim may be stated. They are obeyed literally rather than tidied away, and where one exists the page prints the limit instead of resolving it.

Limit
Jock Lindsey: current Disney wording is member OR closely connected. Never upgrade it.
Limit
Trader Sam's Grog Grotto is adjacent continuity, not an S.E.A. outpost.
Limit
Adventurers Club (1989-2008) predates S.E.A. and was folded in later by retcon.
Limit
A = Disney says it, B = physical prop, C = legacy/unverified, D = fan theory. Never flatten them.
Limit
Disney publishes no canonical Hidden Mickey list; this is one app's catalogue.
Limit
Removed Mickeys are the point of a Time Machine layer. Never delete a gone row.
Limit
D23 warns that guests find accidental three-circle shapes that were never intended.
Limit
The difficulty grade is kept as data and never becomes a rank, badge or score on a page.
Limit
NO FIND HERE CAN EVER BE CONFIRMED BY THE OPERATOR. Disney acknowledges the practice and has never named a single instance. A row that stays a LEAD for ever is finished, not pending; never file one as awaiting verification.
Limit
A recheck row wants a PERSON STANDING THERE, not a source. No document will settle one, because the only document that could is one Disney does not publish.

The source ruling these pages are built under

On 18 September 2026 this house ruled that crowd-sourced encyclopedias, media commons and fan encyclopedias are not a source here: not as a source, not as a citation, not as a caption, and not as an image. Five of the eighteen sources behind the Society workbook fall under that ruling. Fifteen rows had no other support and are not published; rows that merely cited one alongside a surviving source keep the claim, lose the citation, and say so on the row.

The ruling is a build gate rather than a promise. Every page is scanned before the run may succeed and a single hit anywhere stops it.

How to read a row on these pages

DISNEY SAYS IT
The operator's own published page carries this. The workbook cites a Disney page for it.
A PROP CARRIES IT
A physical object in the park carries this. The documentation of that object is a third party's photograph or catalogue, not Disney's copy.
LEGACY OR UNVERIFIED
Carried in older material or in secondary documentation, and not established by a current operator page.
FAN THEORY
Told by readers and enthusiasts. The workbook records it as a theory and does not assert it.
DISNEY IS THE SOURCE
The workbook records the operator as the owner of this row. Forty-one of its 98 rows are marked this way.
SOMEBODY ELSE IS THE SOURCE
The workbook records a third party as the owner. Fifty-six rows are marked this way.
THIS VENUE'S OWN OPERATOR PAGE NAMES THE SOCIETY
The house's own capture of the operator's page for that venue carries the Society's name. The capture is one day's crawl, so it says what the page said that day.
ANOTHER VENUE'S OPERATOR PAGE NAMES BOTH
A captured page belonging to a different venue carries both names. It is evidence about that page, and it is not counted as this venue's.
THE HOUSE'S MAPS PRINT THE NAME
A dated printed guide map in this house's own run carries the name. It attests a printing on a date, never a prop and never an absence.
NOT IN THE HOUSE'S MAP RUN
No sheet among the 171 this house holds carries the name. The run is not every sheet ever printed, so this says what the holdings do not have and nothing more.
SUPPORT WITHDRAWN
Every source the workbook had for the row was a crowd-sourced fan encyclopedia. Under the house ruling of 18 September 2026 the row carries no support at all, so the subject is named and the claim is not published.

Two transcription conventions are in use and the page states both. Passages taken from a locally-held capture of the operator's own page, and from the guide-map sheets, come from real text embedded in those files rather than from OCR: they read as clean English and are QUOTED, with runs of whitespace collapsed to single spaces and nothing else done to them. Anything whose only reading is OCR is CITED by document, date and page and never quoted, because a corrected quotation is an invented one.

The whole written ledger, minus what the ruling removed

Five sources are missing from this list by design. They were crowd-sourced fan encyclopedias and this house does not carry them, so they are not linked, not named and not quoted.
