| UVA Division of Perceptual Studies | Feed | High Strangeness | Official / wire | quarantined unrecognized feed root: html | 1 | University of Virginia medical school research division (near-death experiences, claimed past-life memories, ESP). Fixed topic: the feed is on-beat by construction but its academic titles name no beat keyword, so the classifier scores it 0/10. | |

| arXiv | Feed | UFO / UAP | Official / wire | ok | 0 | arXiv's Atom API, which parseFeed handles unmodified.

Keel's vocabulary is simply rare in the wire, and that is the argument for its own slot rather than a place in the high-volume High Strangeness queries — "men in black" was in this query first and swamped it with a Fijian football club, the film, the Will Smith single and an anti-migrant march, 21 items, none of them the beat. It stays a sentinel: when a real one breaks, this catches it and nothing else here would. | |

| Liberation Times | Feed | UFO / UAP | Genre press | ok | 6 | Previously retired at a 404 because the old entry assumed WordPress. The site is Squarespace, where feeds live at <collection>?format=rss. Lesson worth repeating: before retiring a feed at 404, fetch the homepage and grep for <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml">. | |
| Live Science | Feed | auto | Press | ok | 5 | ||
| Loch Ness Mystery | Feed | Cryptids | Unverified | ok | 3 | Original research and hoax debunking rather than tourism copy. | |
| Metabunk | Feed | auto | Unverified | ok | 4 | The one forum whose posts are work rather than anecdote: geolocating sighting footage, checking photo provenance, identifying lens artefacts. Unverified because it is a forum, whoever is posting. No default_topic — about a third of the board is on beat. | |
| New England Folklore | Feed | auto | Unverified | ok | 2 | ||
| New York Post | Feed | UFO / UAP | Genre press | ok | 12 | The /tag/ufo/ feed exists but is empty; /tag/ufos/ is the live one. Needs a browser UA. | |

| Feed | UFO / UAP | Unverified | ok | — | — | A post linking to a publisher is filed under that publisher and graded by its tier; a self post stays unverified and needs heavy community endorsement, because most of a subreddit's new queue is anecdote. | |
