Corrections and Removals

The web changes. Facts drift, domains move and sometimes an old link becomes something entirely different. Tell us when an edition needs another look.

Factual corrections

If a description contains a material error, send the article URL, the sentence or claim at issue, the corrected information and a reliable source we can check. Minor style disagreements may not require a published note, but substantive corrections will be reflected clearly.

Updated or broken links

Creators can send a new canonical URL when a project moves. Readers can also report broken, redirected or suspicious links. When a destination has changed in a way that creates risk or misrepresents the original selection, we may remove the link while we investigate.

Removal requests

Creators and authorized representatives may ask us to review a selection for removal. Include the edition URL, your relationship to the website and the reason for the request. Helpful context may include a safety issue, an ownership change, exposure of private information or a project that was never intended for broad public access.

A request starts a review; it does not guarantee automatic removal in every circumstance. We may correct the article, update the link, add context, remove an image or remove the selection depending on the facts, public-interest considerations and applicable obligations.

Where to write

Please use a subject line such as “Correction: [article title]” or “Removal review: [website name].” Do not send passwords, identity documents or other sensitive material unless we specifically explain why it is necessary and how to send it safely.

What happens next

Francis will review the published page, available evidence and the request. If more context is needed, he may reply with focused questions. Material changes should be documented in the article so readers understand what changed.
