Editorial policy
Draft. This page is a working draft and must be reviewed before the site launches.
This policy describes the standards we are building the publication around.
Sources
- We prefer official announcements, release notes, security advisories and other primary documents.
- We use other technology publishers to find stories and to add independent context. We do not copy their text or images.
- Each article lists the sources it relies on.
Accuracy
- We separate confirmed facts from estimates, rumours and opinion.
- We do not invent quotes, prices, dates, version numbers, benchmarks or test results.
- If we cannot confirm a detail, we leave it out or say that it is unconfirmed.
Use of AI
- AI may help draft articles from a verified set of facts and sources. It is not asked to rewrite another publisher’s article.
- Drafts are checked automatically for structure, sources and unsupported claims.
- Stories about security, rumours, thin evidence or unclear image rights are held for a person to review before publication.
- We will not say an article was tested by us, or reviewed by a person, unless that happened.
Images
We only publish images we have the right to use. Each image shows its credit and a link to its source or licence. Credit alone does not give us the right to use an image, so we do not rely on it.
Corrections
We correct mistakes openly. See the corrections policy.
