- 1975 台灣文藝沙龍 co-founder — 林衡哲’s memoir records Xie among the four (陳錦芳、謝里法、洪銘水、林衡哲) who founded「台灣文藝沙龍」 after the 鄉土文學論戰, the turning point toward 台灣文學/台灣文化 for that NY circle (Our Journeys 70 (林衡哲, 股東同仁平安)).
- Contributor to 《台灣文化》雙月刊 — the bimonthly 陳永興 founded in North America (2.5 years in print, notable for recording 228 Incident historical facts) lists 林俊提 and 謝里法 among its key contributors alongside 總編輯 陳芳明 and 社長 黃美幸 (Our Journeys 8; EN: “Stephen Lin and Li-fa Hsieh… contributed much to the project” — Our Journeys 8 EN).

- Community action in the movement record: a 謝里法 oil-painting charity sale funded the Houston Taiwanese community center — 楊朝諄、李席舟、李雅彥 purchased works, raising 九千元 with half going to the 會館 ( 2016-07).
- 2026-09-24 re-check (DEEPEN-X slice 09230700-4): corpus re-grep widened the hit set — NEW facts absorbed this pass: essay 130 重塑台灣的心靈, 巴黎大獎/巴黎文教基金會 (Our Journeys 284), 台灣文藝沙龍 1975 co-founding (Our Journeys 70), 台灣文化之夜 1986 (Our Journeys 301), 1985 夏令會 ROOT anecdote (Our Journeys 379). Prior verified-saturated status superseded.
- 2026-10-11 re-check (DEEPEN-X slice 10100500-24): full-corpus re-grep (謝里法/Hsieh Li-fa/Li-fa Hsieh) — hit set unchanged, all 15 corpus records already linked above. The sole new hit (taiwanjustice.net 2024 article) is a false positive: 「玉里法國爸爸」 substring match, not this person. Verified saturated.
- 2026-10-12 re-check (DEEPEN-X slice 10110100-23): full-corpus re-grep (謝里法 / Hsieh Li-fa / Hsieh Li-fa / Li-fa Hsieh / surname-only 謝) across works/articles/sources/events/topics — 16 corpus records hit, all already linked above; hit set saturated. No new material.
