    How this list is built. Every URL is extracted from the full text of a KARA post, canonicalized (tracking parameters stripped, scheme normalized), and classified by host into one of eight categories. Search-result URLs, mailing-list artifacts, self-references, and social-share links are filtered out. This page serves a curated snapshot of that record; the continuously refreshed version and full methodology live on KARA SIGNAL.
