Scotch whisky is governed by rules for its production and labelling. It has five legal categories: single malt, single grain, blended malt, blended grain and blended Scotch whisky. [1]

The brief provides verified facts for all six articles, but it does not include the source records or URLs needed to meet the locked sourcing rules. Its reference numbers are also local to individual articles: “[1]” identifies different sources in different entries, so they cannot safely become one numbered Sources block.

Writing the finished hub now would require inventing source details, supplying prohibited URLs from memory, or omitting mandatory references.
