Method, confidence and limits
Orders with no Arabic text in our archive (University of North Texas Libraries and the Internet Archive). We compare their share before and after April 2004. What is established is only the absence from the archive, not that no Arabic text was issued: the orders among them now have an Arabic transcription from the Dorar al-Iraq legal wiki, which states that it reproduces the Iraqi Official Gazette; the Gazette issues in which they were published have not been found.
