Wikipedia's article on the Jordan Museum is an open, continuously revised tertiary reference with no dedicated editorial board of subject specialists checking it. Its use here is narrow: recording the museum's own publicly stated founding decree and board structure, an administrative fact a national museum has little reason to misstate about itself and that is independently corroborated by the museum's own public statements about its royal patronage. It is not a source for the history or interpretation of the museum's holdings, which need dedicated scholarship, and a claim resting on anything beyond this bare governance fact should be checked against a source with an accountable editorial process.

Reliability Tier3
Tier three: an open, continuously revised tertiary reference with no dedicated editorial board of subject specialists checking it. Its use here is narrow, recording the museum's own publicly stated founding decree and board structure, an administrative fact independently corroborated by the museum's own public statements; not a source for the history or interpretation of the museum's holdings. NotesCited narrowly for the museum's governance: established by royal decree of King Abdullah II in 2002, its by-laws royally ratified in 2003, and governed today by a Board of Trustees chaired by Queen Rania Al Abdullah.
