researched
Dug for facts
Researched is the past tense of research, meaning to have investigated or studied something systematically.
It often appears as an adjective describing work that reflects careful inquiry: a well-researched article, a thoroughly researched biography.
The modifier signals that claims rest on evidence rather than speculation or assumption.
