Corrections Policy

We will get things wrong. What matters is what happens next.

How to report an error

Write to us through the contact page. Include the link to the article and the part that looks wrong. A source, if you have one, helps.

What we do

• An error that could cause harm — the article is taken down immediately, corrected, then restored.
• A factual error — corrected, and the article’s update date changes.
• Language or spelling — fixed quietly.

What we do not do

We do not quietly rewrite something wrong and pretend it was never there. Where a significant error has been corrected, the article records it.
