Accuracy is the point of what we do. When we make a mistake, we correct it openly rather than quietly editing the record. This page explains how, and how you can flag an error to us.

How we handle errors

A confirmed factual error is corrected as soon as it is verified. The corrected article carries a dated note explaining what was wrong, what is now correct, and when the change was made. For online reporting we also update the article’s "last modified" date so search engines and readers can see it has changed.

Levels of update

• Correction: a material factual error — a name, number, date, or attribution. Always flagged at the top of the article.

• Clarification: the original was accurate but could mislead. Flagged so the meaning is now clear.

• Update: a developing story has new, confirmed information. Flagged with a timestamp.

What we do not do

• Quietly edit articles to make ourselves look better.

• Unpublish a story to escape scrutiny — except in the rare case of a legal removal, which we disclose.

• Change quotes after publication simply because a source has second thoughts.

AI-assisted stories are held to the same standard

Where an article was produced with AI assistance, the correction process is identical: a human editor verifies the error, makes the fix, and is accountable for it. How AI is used in our newsroom is documented in our AI content policy.
