Corrections Policy

Last updated

We want every date we publish to be right. When we get something wrong, we fix it openly.

How corrections appear

When a factual error is corrected, the story is updated and a dated note is added in a Corrections section at the end of the article explaining what was wrong. The story’s “Updated” time changes at the same time. We do not remove a correction note once it is published.

Small changes that do not affect meaning, such as spelling or formatting, are made without a note.

Feedback

To report an error, use the contact form and choose “Other” as the subject. Include the story link and the source that shows the correct information. The news desk reviews every report and updates the story when the report is confirmed.
