> The notion of "self authentication" is ???

Also from WP:

A self-authenticating document, under the law of evidence in the United
States, is any document that can be admitted into evidence at a trial
without proof being submitted to support the claim that the document
is what it appears to be. Several categories of documents are deemed to
be self-authenticating:

1. Certified copy of public or business records;
2. Official publications of government agencies;
3. Newspaper articles;
4. Trade inscriptions, such as labels on products;
5. Acknowledged documents (wherein the signer also gets a paper notarized); and
6. Commercial paper under the Uniform Commercial Code.
