Reference Sources & Borrowed Patterns

This section preserves design references, borrowed structural patterns, source notes, source-authority rules, parity controls, and archives without allowing them to override DMBOK authority.

Working pages

• Source Authority & Parity Control — which source controls which kind of claim, Drive/PDF/GitHub parity rules, and closure checks.
• Borrowed Patterns & Source Notes — what was intentionally borrowed from reference systems and what Meridian deliberately does differently.
• Archive / Superseded Material — duplicates, superseded artifacts, and historical shells that must not compete with active navigation.

Authority rule

The DMBOK chapter being studied controls DAMA-specific meaning. Reference systems can influence structure, usability, evidence discipline, and learning design, but they do not define CDMP content.

For the complete authority hierarchy—including Main 00 vs Main 00A/00B/00C, technology documentation, the live execution checklist, and parity rules—use Source Authority & Parity Control.

Reference design source

It was used as a design-pattern source, not as Meridian's company model and not as DMBOK authority.
