Corrections policy

If something is wrong, we want to know what it is and how the evidence supports a correction.

Last updated:

01

Submit a request

Use the contact form and select the corrections topic. Include the article URL, the specific claim, the proposed correction and any relevant documents or links. You do not need to subscribe to make a request.

02

Assess the evidence

We assess the substance of the request rather than the status of the person making it. Disagreement with a conclusion is not itself evidence of an error; documentary support and missing context are relevant.

03

Correct transparently

Material corrections should identify the change and its date. We distinguish an error correction from an update reporting a later development. Corrected content needs a renewed review.

04

Rights and privacy

You can also raise privacy, attribution, accessibility or right-of-reply concerns through the same form. Please do not send unnecessary sensitive personal information.
