+## Investigation Details
 
 Trade Winds was designed by Font Diner, Inc. (DBA Sideshow). The GitHub account `fontdiner` was found and examined. It contained two repositories:
 - `fontdiner/fonts` — contained only a README and LICENSE, no font sources

 The Font Diner website (fontdiner.com) was not investigated further as it is a commercial foundry website unlikely to host open source font source files.
 
-### Status
-
-No canonical upstream repository with UFO or Glyphs sources was found. No source block was added to `METADATA.pb`.
-
-### Conclusion
-
 Trade Winds was produced by a commercial foundry (Font Diner / Sideshow) and the sources are not publicly hosted. The font was released under OFL but no editable source files are publicly available.
