Corrections

Errors happen, especially on a site this size. This page explains how they get handled, and will log substantive corrections as they’re made.

How to Report an Error

If you spot a factual error, a broken source attribution, or a claim that misrepresents what research actually shows, get in touch. Please include a link to the specific page and, where possible, what you think is wrong.

What Happens Next

• Factual errors - a wrong date, a misattributed source, a claim that overstates what evidence supports - are corrected directly, and the article’s updated date is set to reflect it.
• Sourcing issues - a historical claim that turns out to rest on weaker evidence than the article implied - are corrected the same way, with the article’s language adjusted to match what can actually be supported.
• Genuine judgement calls - where an interpretation is defensible but a reader disagrees with the framing - aren’t logged as errors, but are worth raising, since they sometimes lead to a clearer rewrite.

This follows the same standard set out in the editorial policy and research method pages: claims are checked before publishing, and corrected transparently when they turn out to be wrong.
