Corrections

Last substantive update:

Substrate Wire is AI-assembled from linked sources. No human editor approves each item, and automated checks can miss errors. A source link makes a claim inspectable; it does not guarantee the claim is correct.

Report an error

Email [email protected], the publication's existing public corrections address. Include the page URL, headline or record, the wording you dispute, and a source supporting the correction. If possible, include the date you saw it.

Reports do not automatically change a page. No response time or individual acknowledgement is promised. Avoid sending sensitive personal information.

Review and correction policy

  1. Check the disputed wording against its linked source and any relevant primary evidence. Distinguish an error in Substrate's summary from a claim accurately attributed to a publisher.
  2. If a material claim lacks support, remove it from promoted coverage or mark it disputed while checking. Do not turn an uncertain claim into a confirmed one to resolve a disagreement.
  3. For a confirmed material error, correct or withdraw the item and attach a dated notice identifying the original claim, the change, the reason, and supporting sources. A withdrawal should explain why the claim cannot be supported.
  4. Preserve prediction history. Record changed evidence or outcomes as amendments rather than silently rewriting the original prediction or counting unresolved entries as correct.

What needs a notice

Corrections to a number, attribution, publication date, category, or evidence status need a visible notice when they materially change the reader's understanding. A spelling or formatting fix that does not change meaning may be made without a notice. A developing story's new information is an update, not automatically a correction.

This page defines the correction policy. It is not a complete historical correction log. Material notices belong with the affected page or record so readers can see the original context.
