Corrections

When we get something wrong, we fix it and say so.

We make mistakes, and we want to know about them. If you find an error in a story or a Kosh entry, email [email protected] with a link to the page and what needs to change. If you can, tell us where we can check the right answer.

What we do

  • We check the report as soon as we can.
  • We correct the page.
  • For a significant correction to a news story, we add a short note saying what was changed and when.
  • We add or fix sources where they were wrong or missing.
  • Kosh entries are corrected by an editor, and the review date is updated.

What we do not do

We do not quietly change the meaning of a story after it is published. We may update a story as the news develops, and when we do, we say so.
