The register keeps changing after the book is fixed in print. Each entry below was added to this row in the order shown.
NOT OBTAINED AT THE ARTICLE. The publication's site refused the fetch tool with HTTP 403 on 16 August 2026; a direct request with a browser user-agent reached the SITE ROOT the same day, archived at research/retrieved/almodon-2026-04-16-endowment-archive-request.html, BUT THE ARTICLE ITSELF HAS NO KNOWN URL and was not located. THE FIGURES THE CHAPTER ATTRIBUTES TO IT, about 37,000 nationally, 19,000 in Aleppo and 8,500 in Damascus, ARE THEREFORE CARRIED AT SECOND HAND from the source manuscript at line 1317, and the chapter says so in the sentence that uses them. UNTRIED ROUTES, ALL NEEDING THE AUTHOR: a subscription news database; the publication's own archive search; a direct approach. NOT AN IMPOSSIBILITY UNDER D-030. The source manuscript also records a relay by Western Syria Development on 24 April 2026, which is a further route.
PROMOTED TO READ 16 August 2026. THE AUTHOR SUPPLIED THE ARTICLE AS A PDF after this process could not reach it, and reading it CONFIRMED THE ABSENCE RATHER THAN CLOSING IT. The piece is by بثينة عوض, 16 April 2026, held at 'research/الأوقاف السورية والأرشيف العثماني يفتحان أخطر ملفات الملكية.pdf' with an extract at research/retrieved/almodon-2026-04-16-endowment-archive-request.txt. THE FIGURES 37,000, 19,000 AND 8,500 ARE NOT IN IT. They entered this project from the unpublished second edition at line 1317 and have never been in a document. WHAT THE ARTICLE DOES CARRY, and Chapter 4 now uses: statements attributed to ministry officials that endowment properties were sold under the former government to people close to it at low prices and registered in the buyers' names 'خلال الفترة الممتدة بين عامي 1960 و2018'; and that this leaves the good-faith current owner facing 'إما التحول إلى مستأجر لدى الأوقاف، أو مواجهة الإخلاء الكامل، رغم أنه اشترى بموجب أوراق رسمية وسجلات نافذة'. The author of the piece also records that her own 2015 investigation into waqf property led to the ministry suing the journalists.
