Alma 3:15 · 2 Nephi 5:23
This connection's citations are checked against the source text.
The mark sits beside every quote a connection carries. It reports one thing: those words were found in the frozen source text at the reference this page cites, allowing only typographic differences such as curly quotes, dash forms and spacing.
It is not a tier signal, and it is not a judgment about the connection. Where a card carries the Interpretive badge, the reading is still offered with its evidence for you to weigh — the mark speaks only to the citations.
The badges and the mark are separate signals: Textual and Interpretive name the kind of claim a connection makes, while the mark reports that the connection's citations were checked.
Alma 3:15's seed-mingling mark-clause and the small-plates cursing share the mechanism (mixing seed with the cursed line draws the same curse onto the mixer); verbs differ (mingleth/mixeth) and Alma frames a mark, 2 Nephi a cursed seed. Alma 3:9 restates it in narrative voice before quoting the speech. The wider mark-speech 'said to Nephi' (3:14-17) is an unpreserved-source gap: 'mark' occurs ZERO times across 1-2 Nephi — noted. A related contact (Alma 3:14 / 2 Ne 5:21) is conceptual-only.
