Corrections Policy

When popolipopo gets something wrong, the fix should be visible and proportionate to the error. Quietly changing the meaning of an article is not an acceptable correction workflow.

How Corrections Are Handled

  • Minor spelling or formatting fixes may be made without a correction note.
  • Errors of fact, attribution, timing, or context should trigger an explicit update note.
  • If a headline materially misstates the article, both the headline and the article should be corrected.
  • If an article can no longer be supported, it should be retracted or replaced with a clear editor's note.

What a Good Request Includes

A useful correction request includes the article URL, the specific claim in question, and the best supporting evidence available. This makes it possible to review the point quickly and update the piece without introducing a second error.

Where to Send It

Use the publication contact page for correction requests and include the article link in the subject or first line of the message.
