How to cite
Cite a line by its meeting and line id. A line's address never changes, even when its words or speaker are corrected, so links and citations keep working. Each line's options on a meeting page give the full citation, for example:
GOOD|GOAT, Public Meeting Insights, "Phoenix City Council Formal Meeting, 7 October 2026", line L00139, <speaker>, <time>, transcript version 1. Machine transcript, not the official record. CC BY 4.0. <link>
