## Task-Specific Quick Guides

### Preference Ranking
- A > B: A is clearly better on the highest-weight dimensions
- Tie: Genuinely equivalent; not "I can't decide"
- Always write a justification citing specific evidence

### Factual Verification
- Score 5: No errors found after thorough review
- Score 3: 1–2 minor errors that don't affect the core answer
- Score 1: Core claim is wrong

### Chain-of-Thought
- Score 5: Every step valid and necessary; conclusion follows
- Score 3: One flawed step; conclusion partially affected
- Score 1: Reasoning is fabricated or fundamentally broken
