“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Summary: Citation policy of SWANK London Ltd. — rules for quotation, attribution, and evidentiary credit.

Opening Address

Esteemed Journalists, Scholars, Monitors, and Curious Onlookers —

If you stand here, deep within the velvet-lined corridors of SWANK London Ltd., it is because you seek truth with teeth. You are welcome to read, cite, analyse, and echo our work. In fact, we insist.

SWANK exists not to be hoarded but to be witnessed — in courtrooms, lecture halls, newsrooms, and archives.

What You May Do

  • Quote directly from any SWANK entry or published PDF.

  • Reference our filings in academic papers, legal briefs, and investigative journalism.

  • Analyse our structure, tone, and procedural innovations (preferably with awe).

  • Include SWANK in bibliographies, footnotes, and case studies — provided citations are accurate.

How to Cite

Preferred format:
Polly Chromatic (SWANK London Ltd.). “Title of Post or Document.” www.swanklondon.com. Accessed [Date].

For PDFs:
[Full Court Filename].pdf, SWANK London Ltd. Evidentiary Archive.

What You Must Never Do

  • Extract content without attribution.

  • Paraphrase in ways that strip context or diminish the evidentiary record.

  • Sanitise the language until it no longer bites.

To publish SWANK without credit is theft — and theft from this vault invites both cameras and contempt.

Why We Welcome You

The archive is a mirror; mirrors function best when light strikes from every angle. Your analysis, your quotations, your scholarship ensure SWANK cannot be erased back into shadow.

We are not here to hide.
We are here to be cited.

This archive is a witness table, not a control panel.

We do not moderate comments. We do, however, read them, remember them, and occasionally reframe them for satirical or educational purposes.

If you post here, you’re part of the record.

Civility is appreciated. Candour is immortal.
