Correction lifecycle
The three source-supported stages from a reader report to the published record.
- ReportURL, disputed text, reason, and primary evidence
- AssessmentPage, evidence, claim ledger, and publication history
- RecordCorrection, modified date, and material note where needed
No response or correction deadline is promised.
Include the page URL, disputed text, why it appears wrong, and any primary source that supports the report. Security issues should use the security contact process rather than a public correction request.
The content owner reviews the current page, source evidence, claim ledger, and publication history. Minor spelling changes do not create a correction notice. Material product, pricing, permission, legal, or competitor errors do.
A material correction describes what changed without repeating sensitive information, records the correction date, and updates structured modified dates. A page is removed or redirected when it can no longer be kept accurate.
