Evidence before urgency
Use primary sources where possible. Separate confirmed facts, allegations and interpretations. Link to original advisories and research. Never invent interviews, quotes, authors or incidents.
Review and disclosure
Initial articles are drafts pending editorial review. Text and illustrations must be reviewed for accuracy and suitability. Sponsored content must be visibly labeled.
Dates and corrections
Preserve publication dates. Correct errors promptly after review; publication-date presentation is approved by the publisher. Do not refresh dates simply to suggest a story is new.
