Corrections & editorial standards
Updated 2026-10-01
Trust is everything for a community newsroom. Here's how we keep stories accurate and fix mistakes.
How stories are verified
Stories are built from one or more community reports, consolidated and checked automatically by AI against red-flag rules before they appear. Each story lists its sources so you can judge for yourself, and if you spot a mistake, tell us and we fix it.
Requesting a correction
Spotted an error? Contact us with the story link and what's wrong. We aim to review correction requests promptly.
Corrections, updates & retractions
- Corrections fix factual errors; significant ones are noted on the story.
- Updates add new, relevant information.
- Retractions remove stories that cannot be substantiated.
We value transparency over saving face — if we get something wrong, we fix it.
