How the first alert is built
To check this alert, SuperGrok Heavy 4.5 (an AI) read it in full 25 separate times, independently. Each read decided whether the message answers each of the six questions and gave a short reason. A final reviewer then weighed all 25 and wrote the plain-English verdict you see when you open a row. The score (for example 22/25) is how many reads agreed; the 25 individual reads are tucked underneath if you want to check them.

Sourceabsent0/25
Final assessment
Majority 25/25 absent. No campus brand, agency name, or alert signature appears in the text.
Who is sending the alert and who is responding. People act faster on a message from a clearly identifiable, credible sender, such as a named department, the police, or a branded alert system, than on an anonymous notice. A branded signature counts.

Hazardpresent25/25
Final assessment
Majority 25/25 present. Hazard is specific: the text names "gas leak".
What the threat actually is. A complete warning names the specific danger, such as a shooter, a fire, a tornado, or a gas leak, rather than a vague emergency, because people decide what to do based on what they are facing.

Locationpresent25/25
Final assessment
Majority 25/25 present. Location is given through "Dai Hall".

Guidancepresent25/25
Final assessment
Majority 25/25 present. Guidance is the instruction "AVOID THE AREA".

Timeabsent0/25
Final assessment
Majority 25/25 absent. No clock time, date, or recency word such as now or today appears.

Impactabsent0/25
Final assessment
Majority 25/25 absent. No consequence or severity language appears beyond naming a hazard.
What the hazard could do to the people in its path. Beyond naming the threat, a complete warning conveys its potential consequences or severity, such as that a tornado can level buildings or that a leak could be explosive, so recipients grasp how much danger they are in. Research on warning message content finds that a concrete impact statement helps people personalize their risk and act sooner.
