IMAGE VERIFICATION WORKSHEET Learning Cadence | Original worksheet | 27 October 2026 Image link or description: Where I encountered it: Exact claim in the caption: What the image itself visibly shows: SOURCE AND EARLIER USE Publisher or original source found: Source link and date: Earlier matching use found: What establishes a match, rather than a similar scene: What that earlier use establishes: CREATION HISTORY Credential, watermark or detector checked: Exact result and the tool's stated scope: What this establishes about creation or editing: What remains unknown: THE CLAIM Evidence for the claimed date, place and event: Is this independent evidence or a repost of the same claim? Conclusion: supported / contradicted / not established Reason and source link: NEXT ACTION Share with accurate context / seek more evidence / do not share yet: What evidence would change my conclusion: A realistic appearance is not a verification result. Missing credentials, no search match or no detected watermark does not establish authenticity.
