Own TAH encyclopedia entry: 793. 湯昇勇 (published 2016-01-31). Own-record hit only (re-verified 2026-09-25 ZH grep): no further narrative detail in our corpus beyond this bibliographic record — SKIP deepen. Re-sweep 2026-09-26 (slice 09251047-32): same — own record + index only.
2026-10-01 re-verified (slice 09261405-16): one new hit beyond own record — Irvine Taiwanese Presbyterian Church names him as “Dr. 湯昇勇” in its undated catch-all “Notable Speakers (2009–2026)” roster, with no attached session date or talk topic (unlike speakers listed with topics, e.g. 黃勝雄, 朱耀源). Weak evidence — not promoted to a verified speaking engagement, no date inferred. Nothing else absorbable; SKIP confirmed.
2026-10-08 (deepen-x 10070600-23): the ITPC senior-class lecture archive (knowledge/web-archives/itpc_senior_class.md) supplies the missing date and topic — 2014-02-05, 「全球暖化的綜合報告」 with an embedded YouTube video, in the 2014 lecture series listing. This upgrades the roster entry to a dated public lecture at ITPC; promoted. No other corpus hits outside his own record.
2026-10-07 re-verified (slice 10051948-16): fresh grep across works/articles/sources/events/topics — 湯昇勇 hits only own record + index; surname 湯 hits are unrelated (朱耀源 autobiography title, 湯俊彥, 搓圓仔湯記). SKIP stands.
