Editorial & AI assistance policy
Sourcing and verification
Prefer original documents, official announcements, research institutions and identifiable reporting. For rapidly changing or disputed news, check at least two independent credible sources and seek primary evidence. Attribute claims and distinguish statements from established outcomes.
What we publish
Evergreen explainers, sourced profiles and dated news serve different purposes and are labelled accordingly. We do not publish fabricated quotes, unsupported allegations, invented statistics or false claims of first-hand experience. Search popularity is a research lead, not proof of accuracy.
AI-assisted publication
AI tools may research, draft, structure and publish articles through an automated workflow. Automated articles must be labelled and use sources. A human prepublication review is not guaranteed; the publisher remains responsible for corrections. Automation can make errors or fail, so a scheduled target does not guarantee an article count.
Dates, corrections and updates
Publication dates identify first release; modification dates reflect meaningful changes. Do not refresh dates solely to make old content appear new. Material corrections should note what changed. Send a page URL and evidence through our contact page.
Independence and sponsorship
Advertising and sponsored content must be identified. An advertisement does not establish editorial endorsement. Affiliate links, if introduced, must carry a nearby disclosure. Google AdSense publisher code is configured. Monetag direct-link, vignette, push-notification and in-page push advertising is configured on pages other than the homepage. Direct advertising links are labelled; advertisements are not editorial endorsements.
Sensitive topics
Use official sources and carefully qualified language for financial, health and legal topics. Explain what the evidence supports without offering personalised advice. Do not publish private personal information or unverified rumours about public figures.
