Corrections policy

Last updated: 17 July 2026

We will get things wrong sometimes. What matters is what we do next. A wrong fast story costs more trust than a slightly slower right one, so speed never overrides accuracy here.

Before publishing

Every article is checked against its sources and read by a person from our team before it goes live. Our system flags any figure it cannot trace back to a source, and flags any wording that sits too close to another outlet's. Nothing publishes automatically.

After publishing

If we find an error — or you tell us about one — we fix it quickly and say so. Every article keeps a full change history internally, recording what changed, when, and why. Significant corrections are noted on the article itself rather than quietly edited away. If a story is wrong at its foundation, we retract it and explain why rather than leave it up.

We measure this

We track the share of published articles that later need a correction, and we watch that number daily. It is the single most important measure of whether this project deserves your attention.

Tell us we are wrong
