        "A method or technique used to extract data from a source.\n\nExtraction methods define HOW data was obtained, providing\ntransparency and reproducibility for claim provenance.\n\n**Common Extraction Methods**:\n- `xpath_exact_match`: XPath query with exact text match\n- `xpath_fuzzy_match`: XPath query with fuzzy text matching\n- `text_search`: Full-text search within document\n- `css_selector`: CSS selector for element location\n- `json_ld_parse`: Parsing structured JSON-LD data\n- `regex_pattern`: Regular expression pattern matching\n- `nlp_ner`: Named Entity Recognition via NLP\n- `manual_annotation`: Human annotator extraction\n\n**Ontology Mapping Rationale**:\n- class_uri is prov:SoftwareAgent because extraction methods\n  are typically software-based agents that perform extraction\n- close_mappings includes nif:Context as NIF models text\n  extraction contexts and methods\n\n**MIGRATION NOTE (2026-01-19)**:\nCreated per slot_fixes.yaml revision for claim_extraction_method\n\
