Corrections

Errors should leave a visible trail.

We correct material factual errors, clarify misleading wording and update articles when the evidence changes. The goal is an accurate current article without hiding meaningful mistakes in its history.

How changes are classified

Material correction

A factual error that could change a reader’s understanding, decision or trust in the article. The article is corrected and a public record is added here.

Clarification

The original wording was technically defensible but incomplete, ambiguous or easier to misread than intended. A note may be added when the change is significant.

Routine edit

Spelling, grammar, formatting, broken links or wording changes that do not alter the meaning. These normally do not receive a public correction entry.

Update

New evidence, a product release, a legal change or a later event changes the article after publication. The update date and relevant sections are revised; this is not necessarily an error.

How to request a correction

Use the contact page and include:

Submissions are evaluated on evidence, not on whether the requester agrees with the article’s editorial verdict. We may contact the requester for clarification when contact details are supplied.

What a public correction record contains

A material entry should identify the article, correction date, original claim or a clear description of it, corrected information and the reason for the change. Where appropriate, the article itself will also carry a correction note.

Current correction record

No material factual corrections are recorded at this time.

The absence of an entry does not mean older pages were never edited. Routine edits and ordinary evidence updates are handled according to the classifications above.

Removal requests

Requests involving privacy, copyright, safety or legal rights are reviewed separately from ordinary factual corrections. Include enough information to identify the material and the basis of the request. Removal is not automatic, but legitimate rights and safety concerns are considered promptly.
