Build the baseline
MIRENA records result set and internal coverage so novelty is measured against real repetition.
Topical Mapping · Practitioner
New information matters only when it also helps the user move forward.
Information gain asks what useful topic value the asset adds. User gain asks what progress it creates for the person. MIRENA scores both so novelty does not become clutter and helpful content does not remain semantically interchangeable.

InputAn asset, result set baseline, internal overlap, user state, page role, proof, effort, trust, links, and expected task.Evidence enters before the decision.
DecisionKeep, strengthen, reframe, merge, suppress, test, or route the asset.The state remains visible.
OutputA gain record with information gain, user gain, combined fit, redundancy, effort, trust, decision impact, link support, and next route.The handoff carries the reasoning.

Internal MIRENA method
The decision moves through six controlled stages.
The sequence keeps the source, role, evidence, ownership, risk, and next route connected.
Score information gain
The asset is checked for distinct answers, relationships, evidence, comparisons, data, and format.
Score user gain
The asset is checked for clarity, effort reduction, trust, choice, action, support, and continuation.
Apply redundancy and risk
Off scope novelty, duplicated value, weak proof, and poor page ownership reduce the fit.
Review route and placement
The value must belong to the current page, section, component, or linked destination.
Set the decision
MIRENA keeps, strengthens, reframes, merges, suppresses, tests, or holds the asset.
Decision model
The two gain scores create four practical states.
High novelty alone and high usefulness alone are both incomplete.
High information and high user gain
Keep, promote, link, reuse, and monitor.
High information and low user gain
Reduce effort, improve placement, change format, or reframe the angle.
Low information and high user gain
Strengthen evidence, distinction, entity support, or internal role.
Low information and low user gain
Remove, merge, suppress, or rebuild.

Guardrails
The method protects the map from predictable failure.
Novelty is not automatically useful
A new angle can still add effort or drift.
Usefulness is not automatically distinct
A helpful answer may still need stronger evidence or entity support.
Do not create assets from topic existence alone
Every page, section, link, and question needs a gain job.
Let usefulness control placement
Some value belongs in a section, table, note, or linked page rather than a new URL.

Open Topical Mapping HubQuestions
User Gain vs Information Gain questions.
What is information gain?
It is the useful topic value an asset adds beyond common result set and internal site coverage.
What is user gain?
It is the progress the asset creates through clarity, trust, effort reduction, choice, action, support, or continuation.
Why score them separately?
Separate scores show whether the asset is novel but hard to use, helpful but interchangeable, strong on both, or weak on both.
Can a section have gain without becoming a page?
Yes. A table, proof block, example, question, comparison, or route can create strong gain inside an existing page.
What happens after scoring?
MIRENA keeps, strengthens, reframes, merges, suppresses, tests, or routes the asset.
