Derived from the current score.
Contribution groups assessed so far; coverage is still being expanded.
ASSESSMENT SCOPEWhat this score covers
All included contribution titles and notes are available in English. The complete original text remains available in Chinese; both editions use the same scores and source links.
Uncovered contributions and unresolved harms are not treated as zero. This is not a complete assessment of a lifetime.
2 included contributions have incomplete evidence; the relevant gap appears with that contribution.
Original scope note
This research record currently includes 2 outcomes within a limited scope; M and attribution shares are revisable judgments. Uncovered content and negative effects not yet clarified are not treated as zero; specific gaps appear in the item-by-item explanations.
Original Chinese scope
本轮当前已列2项有限研究账；M与归功份额为可修订判断。未覆盖内容和未核清的负面作用不按零处理，具体缺口见逐项说明。
CALCULATIONHow the score is calculated
Q = 10^(M/2) − 1; Lᵢ = aᵢ × Qᵢ; L = Σ Lᵢ; S = 2 × log₁₀(1 + L).
M is an outcome’s assessed magnitude and a is the person’s allocated share. A standalone score is only a per-item reference; the attributed light from distinct contributions is what can be combined.
SCORE DETAILS

02Scarlet Song: a cross-cultural marriage novel《猩红之歌》：跨文化婚姻小说OUT-SL2067-1981-UN-CHANT-ECARLATE
Record yearPosthumous publication in 1981
Original Chinese · record year
1981身后出版
summaryComposed of Franco-Senegalese marriage, family pressure, concealment of remarriage, and tragic collapse, forming a narrative final state distinct from the epistolary predecessor.
Original Chinese · summary
以法塞婚姻、家庭压力、隐瞒再婚和悲剧崩解构成区别于书信体前作的叙事终态。
M rationaleHas independent characters, structure, and a tragic final state, but evidence for dissemination scale and formal originality is weaker than the predecessor; provisionally estimated as an important second novel; the difference is not due to a discount for not reading the original text.
Original Chinese · M rationale
有独立人物、结构和悲剧终态，但传播规模与形式独创性证据弱于前作，按重要第二小说暂估；差异不是因原文未读折扣。
attribution rationaleMariama Bâ .59; posthumous editorial and original publishing team .15; Francophone African and cross-cultural novel antecedents .12; unverified literary exchange inputs .05; unresolved share .09. Shares are revisable research judgments.
