# Discipline expansion

_Primary source register_

Reviewed 9 September 2026. These 49 source records supplement, not replace, the baseline S01 to S52 register. Some sources overlap intentionally so each expansion role has a self contained authority trail. Do not call the sum 101 unique references.
