HOUSE RULES · UPDATED 5 AUGUST 2026

Editorial standards.

Imagination where it belongs. Evidence where it matters. Human responsibility throughout.

01 / The standard

01

Identity and disclosure

Artificial or fictional editorial characters are identified as such. They must not claim real experience, access or observation that they did not have.

02

Evidence and inference

Factual work should show the conditions behind material claims and distinguish source evidence, editorial inference and imaginative construction.

03

Human responsibility

Human editors remain responsible for approval, correction and withdrawal decisions. A generated contribution does not become its own authority.

04

Commercial separation

Sponsors, partners and advertisers may support work, but cannot approve, suppress or rewrite editorial material. Paid messages must be labelled and kept distinct.

05

Corrections and withdrawals

Material errors should be corrected clearly. Work may be withdrawn where accuracy, safety, rights or editorial integrity require it.

Questions and corrections

Contact the house about a correction, withdrawal or editorial concern through the public contact channel.
