Content Update Log
This log lists substantive editorial work and source-review hygiene. It is not a promise that every time-sensitive fee, seat, or acceptance fact remains current. Always re-check the responsible authority, exam owner, and authorised centre before you pay or file.
How to read this log
- Deepening means unique decision help was added or rewritten (decision trees, responsibility splits, checklists, comparison tables, scenario pitfalls, or record templates).
- Source recheck means official URLs were opened again and claims were kept or adjusted; a date-only recheck is labelled as such.
- Isolation means a page stays reachable by URL but remains outside primary discovery, sitemap advertising eligibility, or both until it meets maturity standards.
2026-11-07 — Germany A1/B1 answer titles
Search titles and direct answers now lead with the family-reunion question on whether German A1 applies, then the A1 comparison, the B1 civic-knowledge split, and the two hubs. Source-review dates were not moved. No fee, seat, processing time, search volume, or ranking was added.
2026-11-07 — Route discovery and metadata
Navigation, the homepage, and the routes, exams, guides, and tools indexes now name Germany A1 family reunion and Germany B1 settlement or citizenship as the developed paths. Unconfigured purposes are labelled as official checks rather than available decisions. Chinese navigation can open the guide library filtered to Chinese guides. This pass did not add country pages, fees, dates, or an advertising runtime. The source recheck below is a separate record.
2026-11-07 — Germany A1/B1 source recheck and ads-off disclosure
Six Germany A1/B1 guides were rechecked against official texts that could be opened on this date. Hard fee, seat, duration, and processing-time figures were not copied onto the pages. The advertising runtime stays off, and the privacy and cookie pages describe that off state.
- German A1 family reunion FAQ
- German A1 exam booking timeline
- Germany B1 submission checklist
- Leben in Deutschland and B1
- DTZ, Goethe B1, and telc B1 comparison
- Germany B1 settlement and citizenship timeline
2026-10-21 — AdSense P0 depth remediation (Germany A1/B1)
Editorial deepening for the auditable Germany double-route sample. Authority-First boundaries unchanged; no fabricated fees, seats, acceptance outcomes, or personal professional credentials.
- A1 Route Hub (/germany-family-reunion-a1/): decision order, responsibility split, route pitfalls, minimum record template.
- A1 core supports deepened: language requirement, Goethe A1 proof fit, Goethe vs telc, documents checklist.
- B1 Route Hub (/germany-b1-settlement-citizenship/): settlement vs citizenship decision order, responsibility split, pitfalls, record template.
- B1 hardcore supports deepened: settlement procedure, citizenship language proof / acceptance framing.
- Trust pages: Editorial Method strengthened on About / Editorial Policy; this Update Log published; footer link added.
- Isolation / ads: pending and starter pages remain fail-closed (noindex + no AdSense loader in primary discovery); commercial coming-soon shells stay noindex and out of sitemap.
Earlier windows (summary)
- 2026-07 to 2026-08: Window A/B advertising inventory closure; international thin clusters held as Official Verification Navigator pages (noindex, no ads).
