We publish a lot of content. Sometimes we get things wrong. When that happens, we fix it.
This page explains how we handle errors, updates, and reader feedback across our blog.
How We Handle Errors
If we discover a factual error, an incorrect statistic, a misattributed claim, or a broken source link, we correct it directly in the article. We don’t leave wrong information up while we work out what to do about it.
For significant corrections that change the meaning or substance of an article, we add a note at the bottom explaining what was changed and when. This way readers who have already seen the original version know what’s different.
Minor fixes like typos, broken formatting, or small wording improvements are made without annotation. These don’t affect the substance of what was published.
Ongoing Quality Reviews
Corrections aren’t only reactive. We run regular reviews across our published articles to catch issues that weren’t spotted the first time around. This includes checking that source links still work, that referenced research hasn’t been retracted or superseded, and that the information holds up over time.
Psychology and health content gets extra scrutiny here. Research in these fields moves quickly, and what was considered best understanding two years ago may have been updated or challenged since. We’d rather quietly fix an article than leave outdated claims sitting on the site.
Reporting an Error
If you find something wrong in one of our articles, we want to hear about it. A broken link, a stat that doesn’t match the source, a name spelled incorrectly, a claim that doesn’t seem right. All of it is useful.
You can reach us through our contact page. If possible, include the article URL and a brief description of the issue. That helps us find and fix it faster.
We review all feedback. Not every suggestion will result in a change, but we take each one seriously and respond where appropriate.
Content Removal
In rare cases, an article may be removed entirely. This could happen if a source turns out to be fundamentally unreliable, if the article can’t be corrected without a complete rewrite, or if continuing to host the content would be irresponsible. We don’t take articles down lightly, but accuracy matters more than keeping a page live.
