A decision template for scoping a knowledge graph foundation. It helps teams choose which knowledge domains to connect and maintain, and builds a business case in which every claim is either evidenced or openly labeled as a hypothesis to test.
The 13 sections of this asset

It also provides governance gates, measures for freshness, coverage and retrieval quality, a synthetic worked example with a failure case, a practice exercise, and editable registers for assumptions, sources and research questions.
