§ The result
3 points separate Criteria and Test Partnership.
Under rubric v1.0, Criteria and Test Partnership finish 3 points apart, 53 to 50, as two Assessment entries. The criteria split evenly, 3 each to Criteria and Test Partnership, with 1 level, and the weighted points on the side Criteria holds, headed by Article 11 Technical Documentation, settle the total. Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Criteria 68, Test Partnership 57 — and at a 20% weight it carries 55% of the weighted advantage Criteria holds across the 3 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +3.0 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 5.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +3 beside that +3.0.

§ Evidence
Cited sources and documented absences, criterion by criterion.
An absence is a finding, not a blank: the reviewer looked for a named artefact and recorded that it is not located. Where a source sits is a fact about hosting only.
