content(wiki): purge v0.1 Sova/Van Maanen residue (#865)
Spring-cleaning accumulated v0.1 vertical-slice residue across the wiki. Scope per Jeroen's pre-decisions on 2026-04-21: - Delete outright: wiki/star-systems/GJ-35/sova/ subtree (5 files + 2 dirs) — v0.1 Station Sova / Transit District content. - Strip example blocks in authoring guides and _templates/ that cited dropped v0.1 NPCs (Kael Davan, Sera Venn, Nils Davan, Devra, Torek, Renn, Pell, Tav, Lera Sessik, Sabel). Replaced with short "v0.1 examples removed — D-122" notes pointing authors to the active NPC roster. - Rewrite canonical-lore references file-by-file: faction pages, technology pages, contraband pages, concepts pages, corp pages that cited v0.1 names/places. Preserve institutional/structural content, drop specific-name citations. - Commission name drift: replace "Concord Commission" and "Assembly Commission" with "the Lattice Commission" (D-193) throughout. - Van Maanen's Star cultural references: the canonical in-game name is Vuurkloof. "Van Maanen's Star" is retained only as an astronomical designation (glossary + GJ-35 Calibration Note). All cultural/system references converted to Vuurkloof across culture-authoring-guide, cultural-generation-guide, founder-gates, and star-system adjacent-system descriptions. - Strip `v0.1` from faction/triangle frontmatter tags (8 files). - wiki/triangles/hub-power.md and wiki/factions/the-ring.md: rewritten using role-name exemplars (Ring Coordinator / Shift Supervisor / THE FRIEND) instead of named v0.1 NPCs. Triangle pattern preserved as a structural reference. Also applies drive-by Commission drift fixes and minor cross-ref updates to canonical corps (gate-corporation, mastroianni-vehicle-group, stalownia-kowalski, prometheus-labs, ferreira-monteiro, vins-de-grand-vide, and 13 others).

The detective assesses culpability in the crime ("how responsible are they for the harm?"). Same scale, different lens. A smuggler might mark Drin as `"compromised"` (dragged in, not choosing) while the detective marks Drin as `"complicit"` (he knew and did nothing). The detective's moral arc spec is unwritten in v0.1 but follows the same key.

| **Contradiction type** | Spatial deviation (meeting unknown contact) | Behavioral avoidance (leaving when a suspect arrives) |
|
||||
| **Discovery method** | Direct observation in restricted area | Pattern recognition over multiple visits |
|
||||
| **What they're hiding** | Attempt to exit the ring (protect Naia) | Unreported evidence (protect Naia) |
|
||||
| **Sympathetic motivation** | Family protection (Naia is Kael's partner) | Friendship loyalty (Naia is Sera's friend) |
|
||||
| **Naia as connection** | Kael's personal life | Sera's social network |
|
||||
| **What they're hiding** | Attempt to exit the ring (protect someone close) | Unreported evidence (protect a third party) |
|
||||
| **Sympathetic motivation** | Personal protection (someone they care about) | Friendship loyalty (mutual third-party connection) |
|
||||
| **Third-party connection** | {THE FRIEND}'s personal life | {THE FRIEND}'s social network |
|
||||
| **Color shift timing** | Single observation event (immediate) | Third occurrence (cumulative) |
|
||||
| **Confrontation stakes** | Ring security vs. personal loyalty | Institutional duty vs. personal loyalty |
|
||||
| **Resolution spectrum** | Understanding ↔ Betrayal | Protect friend ↔ Report corruption |
|
||||
|
||||
**Common structure**: Both contradictions involve **Naia** as the emotional anchor. Naia is worried about Kael. Sera knows why (unreported evidence). Kael is trying to protect Naia (exit attempt). The smuggler and detective approach the same NPC web from opposite sides. THE FRIEND, in both cases, is the person caught in the middle trying to protect someone they care about.
|
||||
**Common structure**: Both contradictions involve a **shared third party** as the emotional anchor — someone both THE FRIEND NPCs are trying to protect, approached from opposite sides of the case.
