Engine for validating proposed changes to an electronic entity
First Claim
1. A method of analyzing a proposed change to an electronic entity, the method comprising:
- calculating a validity index based on a definable rule set, the definable rule set having inputs including a plurality of quantified values representing either contextual information metadata about the proposed change or information about a user proposing the change, or some combination thereof.

Abstract
One implementation provides a method for analyzing the validity of a proposed change to an electronic entity. The method includes receiving the proposed changes to an electronic entity from an external device, and calculating a validity index based on a set of definable rules. The inputs to the calculation include quantified values that represent either contextual information about the proposed change or information about a user proposing the change, or some combination thereof. After the calculation of the validity index, the method includes deciding, based on the calculated validity index, whether to proceed further in applying the proposed change to the electronic entity.
