Known issues with DISC-Med-SFT
- Upstream includes MedDialog (copyright belongs to haodf.com) and cMedQA2 (non-commercial research statement), inconsistent with the Apache-2.0 label
- HF has only a subset (without the behavior preference data)
- Part of the data was reconstructed or generated by an LLM (snapshot s03, quoted in the zh text).

Change log 9
| 2026-11-13 | License status changed from conflict to restricted and hosting from pending to link-only: the declared license is broader than its upstream sources, so the strictest upstream applies. | |
| 2026-11-13 | Added specialty tags: multi-specialty(inferred). | |
| 2026-11-13 | Added the model-generated risk flag (the dialogues were rebuilt with a language model). Status and hosting unchanged. | |
| 2026-11-13 | Removed the stored size-tier tag; the tier is now computed from the size field when pages are built. | |
| 2026-11-13 | Added dataset-level tags: 4 (2 stated by the authors with excerpts, 2 inferred from the content). No conclusion changed. | |
| 2026-11-12 | Recorded the code repository license separately; it is not treated as a data license statement. | |
| 2026-11-12 | Added verbatim license excerpts and snapshot ids from captured page snapshots; no conclusion changed. | |
| 2026-11-12 | License status split into license_status (what the license says) and hosting (what Mdexa does); the earlier conclusion is kept for traceability. | |
| 2026-11-12 | Card converted from an earlier manual catalog; no new facts added; reclassified under taxonomy v2. |
