22/22 checkable references clean · checked 2026-08-29

Every reference with a DOI in the deposited reference list resolved to a known work in Crossref or DataCite at the dated check, and none carried a retraction, withdrawal, or removal notice.

86 without a DOI — not checked. A reference deposited without a DOI is never matched by title or guessed at; it stays outside the checked set, and this line discloses that.

no DOI — not checked259 Though advertising practices can be regulated either through "unfairness" or "deception," the FTC has prosecuted most advertising cases through the "deception" standard. 260 The "deception" standard differs from the "unfairness" standard, and both standards evolved separately. Though the "unfairness" and "deception" standards are not twins, they developed with a common purpose. The FTC promulgated what became known as the Cigarette Rule in 1964, setting the "unfairness" standard for the next sixteen years. 261 This rule framed regulation of trade practices more in moral terms rather than economic terms

What this badge says. CiteStamped means the CHECKABLE references of this work were clean at the dated check: each resolved to a known work in a public registry, and none carried a retraction notice at that time. It says nothing about the quality, findings, or importance of the work itself, and nothing about references deposited without a DOI.
