Editorial policy
Articles should separate sourced facts, editorial judgment, and open uncertainty so readers can see what is known, what is interpreted, and what may change.
These notes explain the editorial standards readers should expect across articles, reference pages, and update pages.
Articles should separate sourced facts, editorial judgment, and open uncertainty so readers can see what is known, what is interpreted, and what may change.
Comparisons and explainer pages should make their decision frame visible: what is being measured, what is interpreted, and what remains uncertain or out of scope.
Public pages should separate primary materials, technical references, and interpretive notes so readers can see where direct evidence stops and analysis begins.
Readers should be able to report factual errors, stale guidance, and missing context. Public updates should describe conceptual changes rather than hide behind silent edits.
Illustrations, diagrams, and product or facility imagery should be labeled by origin and treated as explanatory aids, not as substitute evidence for technical claims.
Each article should show its sources, update state, and correction path. Use the article archive to find coverage, or jump to the corrections policy when a factual issue needs attention.
