description: What an organisation's page in the notebook is made of — the fixed sections, when a company earns a page at all instead of staying a field on a person's, and the rules that keep it from becoming a second copy of everyone who works there. Composed into every stage that writes one.
---
# An organisation's page
Why these rules: docs/rem-skills/rem-page-org.md
Facts of the entity (programme, agreement, fees, legal entity, who the user
deals with) go here, not on the sender's page.
## When an organisation earns a page
Create one only when **either** is true:
- **Two or more people write from the same work domain.**
- **Something is agreed with the entity rather than the person**: a signed
contract, recurring money, a programme or account that outlives this contact.
A one-person client who signed earns a page; a one-person vendor who sent a
quote does not.
Otherwise the company stays a `Company:` field on the person's page. A mailbox
provider (`gmail.com`) is never an organisation.
`co rem scan orgs --days 180` lists domains passing the first test, with
`people`, `two_way`, `notices` and `mails` per row. It proposes; you judge.
`two_way` (people there who both wrote to the user and were written back to)
separates a counterparty from a vendor; read it against the names.
- **Brand names that only ever send are a vendor**, whatever the headcount
(`Apple Developer`, `Xero Support`); so are event platforms and newsletters.
Their mail goes on the page of what it is about (the project using it).
- **`two_way` of zero does not settle it**: a reply from the user's other
mailbox leaves it at zero. Human names and subjects about the user's own work
outweigh it; a brand name does not.
- **The user's own domain is not a counterparty.** Pass every own address to the
scan with `--mine`.
- **One domain can be two tenants** (staff and students, a shared agency
address). Choose one page or two from the mail and say which in
`Uncertainties`.
## The shape
**Every section is always present, in this order**; a section the evidence does
not support says `Unknown`. **Every factual sentence carries a claim number**
`[n]` into `Sources`.

# UNSW
## Domains
- unsw.edu.au [1]
- student.unsw.edu.au — the student body, not staff [4]
+
+ ## Facts
+ - What they do: public research university [1]
+ - Website: Unknown
+ - Location: Sydney [1]
- Legal entity: The University of New South Wales, ABN 57 195 873 179 [7]
+ - Your contacts: [Vern Chan](../people/vern-chan.md) [2]
+ - First contact: 2026-07-10 [1]
+ - Last contact: Unknown
## Who they are
Public research university in Sydney. The user deals with two parts of it that
do not otherwise touch: UNSW Founders (the startup arm, Unit of
Entrepreneurship) and the Office of Global Affairs. [1][3]
## Our relationship
Startup partner to the Practice of WorkXStartup programme since July 2026 —
the user mentors a student team, UNSW handles administration and academic
support. Not a paid engagement; the return is access to the founder network
and to students. [2][3]
**Where it stands:** one team of 4–6 students agreed after the user pushed
back on two or three; sessions requested 3–5 pm; WIL agreement still with
Helena. [5][6]
## People here
- [Vern Chan](../people/vern-chan.md) — Global Program Manager; the way in,
and who reroutes to whoever owns the next step [2]
- [Karen da Lapa-Soares](../people/karen-da-lapa-soares.md) — Senior
Partnerships Officer; owns the programme's terms [5]
- Helena Asher — contract; no page yet [5]
## Terms
- Summer 2027 cohort: 11 Jan – 5 Feb 2027, six touchpoints, CBD campus [2]
- WIL agreement requested by 17 July 2026; IP/confidentiality arrangements
were named as a next step and their outcome is not recorded here [2]
## Open threads
- **WIL agreement** — with Helena since 2026-07-21; the user has not signed [5]
- **3–5 pm slot** — asked of Natalie 2026-07-21, unanswered in this material [5]
## Uncertainties
- Whether the one-team exception was formally accepted, or only discussed.
- `student.unsw.edu.au` correspondents are course contacts and may belong to a
different relationship entirely; not investigated.

## Rules
+ - **`Facts` is data**: those seven labels, one line each, every one present,
+ a missing value exactly `Unknown`, every value cited, dates `YYYY-MM-DD`.
- **`People here` is links, never copies.** A sentence true of the person and
not the employer belongs on their page. A named person with no page yet is an
unlinked line.
- **Once this page exists, the person's `Company:` field links here** and the
institutional detail moves off their page; it keeps their role, how they
write, what they owe the user.
- **`Our relationship` is with the entity**, not the sum of individual ones.
- **`Terms` holds the numbers**: rates, dates, notice periods, what was signed
and when. A changed term keeps both values and the date it changed.
- **Two parts of one organisation that never touch may be two pages.** Say so in
`Uncertainties`; split only when the mail shows separate relationships.
- **A company's own marketing is not knowledge about it.** Keep what the user
learned by dealing with them.
