docs: record why hololive Dreams stopped refreshing, and what lapsed means

SOURCES.md § 16 holds the diagnosis (run 317's rejected zeros, the page
unchanged in shape with nothing current since 19 Sep) and the replacements
assessed and declined: NamuWiki behind a Cloudflare challenge, an official
site with no event posts, no Game8 page. AGENTS.md says when a person may set
`lapsed` and what it does not excuse. TODO ticks the item and notes the
cosmetic "last confirmed never" seen in the CI state.

 A single manual `--only` dispatch is enough to answer it for one source; note that `--dry-run`
 cannot, because it makes no requests at all by design.
 
+**A source that has lapsed is recorded, not repaired.** A wiki can keep answering `200` with an
+intact page whose editors simply stopped, and then every cycle parses to zero and is rejected. That is
+correct, because a zero is never published, but after three cycles it fails the workflow over
+something no code here can fix. When a person has looked, found the page unchanged in shape and
+merely stale, and found no fetchable replacement, they set `lapsed: { recorded, reason }` on the
+registry entry. Refresh then reports that source's empty answers as a warning instead of `broken`.
+Three limits keep this honest:
+
+- It excuses only a source that answers `200`. A lapsed source that starts answering `403` or `5xx`
+  is broken like any other.
+- It changes nothing a reader sees. The held snapshot keeps ageing, and the staleness footer goes
+  on saying so.
+- It asks to be removed. The first cycle that lists events again warns that `lapsed` should come out

 - **Priority & IDs:** Game8 is assigned `priority: 10` while Fandom is default/0. Two live events differ slightly in naming (`To Temper Thyself and Journey Far` vs `… Cycle 5`, and `Stygian Onslaught` vs `…: Battle of the Starburst`). Game8's higher priority breaks near-match ties in `merge.ts`, ensuring existing localStorage event IDs survive and reader completion marks remain intact. Fandom contributes 11 net-new events Game8 missed, 0 date conflicts occur, and overlapping events gain corroboration bonuses.
 - **336-day event:** Genshin's anniversary 5-star selection runs 336 days (`2025-10-22` → `2026-09-23`), prompting the test duration ceiling to be raised from 180 to 365 days across the test suite and ingestion specs.

+(2026-10-13) logged `rejected — kept previous snapshot; new body yielded 0 events (had 1)` then
+`broken` after 21 failing cycles with `last status 200`. So the source was answering, not blocked.
+
+**What the page shows.** One request on 2026-10-14 (our User-Agent, about 7h after the last CI
+fetch; kept as `fixtures/holodori/holodoriwiki-events-2026-10-14.html`):
+
+- **Same template.** `canParse` passes and the two-heading layout is unchanged. The parser is
+  reading the page correctly.
+- **Nothing current.** `Current Events` holds only `Beginner Mission`, which has no start date and
+  is skipped by design (AGENTS.md § hololive Dreams). The newest row anywhere is
+  `A Dreamy Summer Escape`, 09/19–09/25 JST, under `Past Events`.
+- **The game did not pause; the page did.** Rows had been added every week or two from 7 Aug to
+  19 Sep. The game's X account then ran a score challenge from 7 to 13 Oct and announced a
+  "Neon Sunshine Festival". Neither is on the page.
+
+**Candidates assessed:**
+
+| Candidate | Finding | Verdict |
+|---|---|---|
+| NamuWiki `hololive Dreams/이벤트` | Lists the 7–13 Oct event with times. `robots.txt` allows `/w/` for `*`, but the page answers our client `403` with `cf-mitigated: challenge` (Cloudflare's JavaScript check) | **Decline.** That is an access control; § Method and AGENTS.md § Scraping conduct rule out working around it |
+| `www.hololive-dreams.com/news` (official) | No `robots.txt` (404), so nothing is disallowed. But the news list has four posts in all: launch, system requirements, and two on 29 Sep (Ver.1.2.0, the Soda Pop Lagoon area). The site posts no events | **Decline** — no event data |
+| Game8 | No hololive Dreams events page found, only a launch news article | **Decline** — nothing to read |
+| X (`@holo_dreams_en`), press releases | X has no fetchable surface for us. Press releases (CyberAgent, syndicated) are prose about single events, not a schedule | **Decline** |
+
+**Worth doing instead.** `holodori.wiki` is a CC BY-SA wiki, so adding the missing events there
+fixes it for every reader of that wiki, and refresh picks them up with no code change. When the
+page lists events again, the refresh warns that the source is listing events again and that
+`lapsed` should come out of its registry entry. Do that, and update this section.
+
+**Re-check:** `bun run refresh --only holodori-holodoriwiki-events` once the six-hour floor has
+passed. A `fetched` with more than zero events means the wiki is back.
