TISE coverage starts with an edition-specific exhibitor record

The International Surface Event brings flooring, stone, and tile coverage under its event umbrella. Its current website and older event material should be treated as records of particular editions, not interchangeable exhibitor lists. Official TISE site · 2023 event guide.

Build the link from event to product

For each candidate story, record the event edition, exhibitor name, booth information if confirmed, and exact product or service discussed. Then look for a dated announcement, official listing, or product document. A company's appearance at the show does not establish that every item in its current catalog was exhibited there.

Keep launch announcements separate from demonstrations of existing equipment. A product shown at an event may have existed earlier; an event date is not automatically its release date. If the record does not establish the date, retain the uncertainty.

Report what the evidence supports

A sourced preview can explain a planned exhibit. A retrospective can analyze archived documents. An account of a live demonstration requires an actual observation or an attributed report from someone who attended. These are different article formats.

The archive entry should retain its source links and correction history. That lets later coverage connect a product's development with the events where it appeared without inventing attendance, experience, or publication history.
