What to review
Locate the formula, scale direction and treatment of missing inputs. Ask how sensitive the result is to a reasonable change in weights.
A practical example
A high overall score can conceal a weak result on one indicator. Readers may need the component values to understand the practical implication.
Keep the claim in scope
A precise total does not prove the weighting is appropriate. The rationale belongs beside the calculation.
Research and editorial context
A result is meaningful within its methodology. Match the research question, assessed universe and measurement period before making a comparison. These reference notes explain evaluation concepts; they do not add indicators, weights or thresholds to any published WCRC study.
Examples illustrate a decision and do not describe a named organisation's conduct. This is a reference note, not a new research finding or an award outcome.
