Editorial standards
Useful, honest, and worth your time.
Every article should answer a real question, add something useful, and be clear about what supports its advice.
Sources and original value
We prefer primary sources for material facts: official guidance, original research, product documentation, and direct reporting. Articles link to their sources and distinguish those facts from our editorial interpretation.
Each story needs a useful contribution such as a decision framework, comparison, sequence, or checklist. We do not rewrite a source solely to make another search result.
Authorship and AI assistance
AI tools assist with research organization, drafting, and original illustrative images. The publication is responsible for what it publishes. An AI-generated draft is not an expert review, a personal experience, or evidence that a product has been tested.
Bylines identify an actual author or the accountable publication. Expert credentials and review labels appear only when they are real, relevant, and tied to the article being published.
Dates and updates
A published date identifies when a story first becomes public. An updated date reflects a substantive edit; changing punctuation does not make an old article new. Sources and commercial recommendations are reviewed as their facts change.
Corrections
Material factual errors require a correction and a record of what changed. Health, safety, and image-rights concerns receive priority.
