[development] How to validate a $node?

[Earl Dunovant]

With no claim that it's the Right Way(c)

function syndicator_item_to_node($item_id = NULL) {
>   global $user;
>   if (is_null($item_id)) {
>     $iid = arg(2);
>     if (isset($iid)) {
>       $item = db_fetch_object(db_query(SYNDICATOR_PROMOTE_TO_NODE_QUERY,
> $iid));
>     }
>   }
>   else if (is_numeric($item_id)) {
>     $item = db_fetch_object(db_query(SYNDICATOR_PROMOTE_TO_NODE_QUERY,
> $item_id));
>   }
>   if (isset($item)) {
>     $node = new stdClass();
>     $node->is_new = true;
>     $item->description = check_markup($item->description, $node->filter);
>     $node->created = time();
>     $node->date = format_date($item->timestamp, 'custom', 'Y-m-d H:i:s
> O');
>     $node->type = variable_get('syndicator_publish_node_type', 'none');
