Atlas Cross-References and Related Products
Rules for connecting Codex concepts and Atlas products through controlled family, technique, designation, variation and comparison relationships without merging distinct identities.
Cross-references help readers move between technical concepts and named products while preserving the separate responsibilities of the Codex and Atlas.
A product may be a protected child, regional form, close comparator, technique example or source variation. Each relationship should say what is actually shared.
Aliases, translations and historical names require evidence. Similar ingredients or shapes do not justify merging products with distinct legal or cultural identities.
Products link to salt, fermentation, heat, drying and fault articles only where the process materially applies. A link is explanatory, not a complete method.
Key relationships should be reciprocal and tested after additions, redirects or title changes. Broken or misleading targets are suppressed until resolved.
Official designation requirements remain controlling for the named product. Curesmith adaptations are labelled separately and never redefine the protected identity.
