Useful. Clear. Checkable.
An announcement is the starting point. The reader needs the context, the practical meaning, and the evidence.
Follow the underlying information
We prefer official notices, identifiable datasets and first-party terms for factual claims. Independent reporting can provide context. Articles link to the evidence used, with dates and geographic scope where relevant.
Add something useful
A story should provide a clear explanation, a transparent calculation, a practical comparison or a walkthrough. Length follows the information. Hypothetical examples are labeled, and their assumptions should be visible.
Review before publication
The editorial desk keeps drafts separate from published versions. Manually approved articles require the publisher to check facts, dates, scope and the original contribution. Selected everyday consumer updates can be written and published automatically after source extraction, consistency checks and a separate AI check. Those articles disclose that they have not received human editorial review. Failed checks leave the article as a draft; previews remain labeled until publication.
Use AI honestly
AI helps organize source information, write drafts and check selected automatic posts. Automated checks can miss errors and do not guarantee accuracy. Each automatic article links to its source and identifies its method. We do not invent historical documents, quotes, prices or first-hand experience. The publisher remains responsible for the publication and its corrections.
Give history its context
A receipt records one purchase. An advertisement records an offer. Comparisons distinguish sticker prices, inflation-adjusted purchasing power and affordability, using suitable definitions and sources.
Correct the record
If a material fact changes or an error is found, the article should be reviewed and its date updated. Send the story link, the detail in question and supporting evidence through Contact & corrections.
Advertising and relationships
This first version has no display advertising or affiliate links. If that changes, advertising and relevant commercial relationships must be identified clearly. Sources listed on the site are not implied sponsors.
