Corrections Policy

Corrections Policy

We make mistakes. This is what happens when we catch one — or when you catch one for us.

What counts as a correction

Any substantive factual error: a wrong specification, an outdated price presented as current, a misattributed claim, a date or product detail that’s wrong. Typos and style fixes are corrected silently; everything else is noted.

How corrections are handled

  1. The article is fixed promptly.
  2. A correction note is added to the article with the date and a brief
  3. description of what changed.

  4. For significant errors — a wrong conclusion built on a wrong fact — the note
  5. explains the impact, not just the edit.

What we don’t do

  • We don’t quietly rewrite articles to hide errors.
  • We don’t delete articles to avoid acknowledging mistakes. If an article is
  • removed, we say why.

  • We don’t treat “the manufacturer updated their page” as our error, but we do
  • update the article and date the change.

Report an error

Use the Contact page and choose “Corrections.” Include the article URL, the incorrect statement, and what’s correct (with a source if you have one). We aim to acknowledge reports within a few days and resolve them as fast as the facts allow.

Being corrected is part of publishing. We’d rather be corrected than wrong.
