Invented person; not user research; never quote as a real reader.

Persona deadline: Tomás Aguilar, wire reporter in Madrid, 300-word Lisbon update, 10 minutes, 390 px phone. Entry: /guide/media/ (v0.1.1043, pushed 12:09 UTC). DNT + GPC on. Page height 7,857 px closed (11.8 screens; guide-3: 8,619), 11,751 px with "21 more today" open. Seconds lost to length: ~25 s (Madeira 4734-6283 and the footer block scrolled past; the fold adds ~3,900 px).

Path

  1. /guide/media/ 0 px: H1 @227; "In force now for Lisbon: RED rain warning, until 18:00 UTC; also orange wind, orange waves (sea)" FACT, "IPMA's warnings feed, read Wed 11 Nov 11:26 UTC" @563, "Lisbon is on UTC in November" @582. 5 s, 0 taps.
  2. "Changed today (published 2026-11-11, UTC; newest first)" @851: 3 rows (São Bento meeting 11:07 EVIDENCE, Vasco da Gama 100 km/h 10:50, Carris 10:40 FACT). 15 s.
  3. "21 more today" @1416, tap: 24 rows, ~3,900 px. IPMA's wind red-to-orange (07:16) is rows 15 and 16 of 24 (@3454 and @3644 when open), listed twice. 60 s, 1 tap.
  4. "Missing something you need, or something wrong? Contact us: the desk reads every message." @1481, link @1508 (was @8241). 3 s.
  5. "7 · I'm a journalist" @1586: headline, Day 3 "aims to proceed as planned" FACT; lead's paragraph "A lower level, not an all-clear" @1844, "Kept by incident.conductor@..., updated Wed 11 Nov 08:44 UTC" @2217. 25 s.
  6. "1 · What is happening now" @2654: four IPMA levels in IPMA's words; alert situation FACT. 20 s.
  7. "5 · Web Summit" @3673: "an aim, not a promise" @3724, read 04:33 "(8 h ago)"; "Not yet announced" @4054. 20 s.
  8. Tap Contact us @1508 -> /app/desk/: "read about once an hour (at seven minutes past); a person on the team writes any reply, so an answer can take longer" @380; "Press or media" @808; "for a deadline, say so in your message" @2098. 30 s, 1 tap.

Total ~3 min, 2 taps (3 with the fold).

In 10 seconds

Red rain in Lisbon until 18:00 UTC, orange wind and waves; IPMA, read 11:26 UTC; not a warning service.

In 1 minute

Bridges, Carris, Fertagus, flights cancelled (208 Lisbon), Day 2 off, Day 3 "aims to proceed" (organiser, 10 Nov 19:09); a contact line right under the change list.

Three things looked for

  • What stands now, with source and time: found. 0-664 px, 5 s, 0 taps.
  • Changed since this morning (main change: IPMA wind red to orange 07:16): partly. List @851, 15 s; the main change only inside the fold, rows 15-16 of 24, ~75 s, 1 tap. It is in the lead's paragraph @1844 (stamped 08:44), which he reads as the change, ~45 s. Duplicates in the fold: IPMA lowering x2, flight counts x2 (208 / 222), sea bars x2, Vasco da Gama x2 (10:50 and 07:30), Funchal centre (fold and #6).
  • Press contact and response time: found, fast to reach, slow to answer. @1508, ~20 s, 1 tap; "about once an hour", reply "can take longer"; no reply time promised, no phone or email. Beside "Press or media" nothing says the time.
  • Label key: not found on the page. Only footer "Facts, evidence and hypotheses are labelled" @7583 and "Every line above is what an authority or operator stated... 'not stated' means we do not know" @7124. The key exists in the hidden "Panel" (Lens: fact "read at the source that decides or warns", evidence "reported by others"); he never opens "Panel".

Misread

  • Status chips on counts: "limited" on "208 flights cancelled", "announced" on occurrence counts, "running" on tunnels; read as statuses.
  • "published 2026-11-11" in the heading read as the list's publish time.
  • FACT vs EVIDENCE guessed (EVIDENCE = press). Two IPMA rows both FACT, one chip "announced", one none: unsure which is current.
  • "not stated" vs "closed": clear (Madeira "not stated in what we have read"; "not announced" list @4054).
  • Lead's box "08:44" while header says "1 min ago": still unsure it is current.

Wanted, not found

  • Warning-level changes pinned first in "Changed today".
  • A promised reply time or phone for press on deadline.
  • A one-line citation example on the page (still on /help/cite.html @7051 link).

Reads like advice?

No. "Lusoponte advises against..." @3063 (attributed); "sea worsening until 12:00 Thursday" (Who: Autoridade Marítima Nacional, fold). Disclaimer "Nothing here is a forecast or advice of ours" @6809.

Words not understood

"Panel"; "Deeper"; "the record"; "CAP Update" (IPMA row); "SRPC"; chips "limited"/"announced" on counts.

What would make them act

Files in ~3 min: warnings, wind lowered, Day 2 off / Day 3 aim, bridges, Carris, Fertagus, flight count, citing IPMA, websummit.com, operators, CNN Portugal. Would use the desk only for a correction.

Score

4 / 5: contact moved up and page shorter, so he files fast; the main IPMA change is still folded and duplicated, and there is no label key in sight.

Against guide-3

  • IPMA change buried and duplicated: not fixed (rows 15-16 of 24, still x2; 3 other duplicate pairs).
  • Page length 8,619 px: partly (7,857 px; Madeira still 1,549 px in the path).
  • Press contact an hourly form: partly (stated "about once an hour", "for a deadline, say so"; no reply time, nothing beside "Press or media").
  • Chips on counts: not fixed.
  • No "last checked" on list / Day 3: not fixed (Day 3 "(8 h ago)").
  • No FACT/EVIDENCE key, intro at bottom, "1 min ago": not fixed (key only in Panel; intro @6939; "1 min ago" @40). Contact line in reach: fixed (@1508).

Findings

  • costly | Main change (IPMA wind red->orange) folded and duplicated | "Changed today" fold rows 15-16 of 24, ~2,000 px below the fold summary when open; 75 s, 1 tap | Pin warning-level changes first; merge rows of one event.
  • costly | Duplicates in "Changed today" | IPMA x2, flights 208/222, sea bars x2, Vasco da Gama x2 | One row per event, newest reading.
  • minor | No label key on the page | key only in hidden Panel; footer @7583 | One line under the top box: FACT = read at the deciding source; EVIDENCE = reported by others.
  • minor | Press reply time not promised | /app/desk/ @380, @2098; "Press or media" @808 | Put "read hourly at :07; reply by a person, not guaranteed" beside "Press or media" and on the guide's contact line.
  • minor | Chips on counts | @1948, @1811 (open) | No status chip on counts.
  • minor | No "checked HH:MM" on Day 3 or the list | @3724 "(8 h ago)" | "Checked HH:MM UTC; no newer word".
