When something is wrong, we update the page instead of hiding behind generic disclaimers.
This policy explains what counts as a correction, how readers can report a problem, and how article updates are handled across the site.
Health content degrades when small errors pile up: a broken reference, an outdated dosing statement, a weak claim phrased too strongly, or a product section that no longer reflects the current evidence.
This policy exists so readers can see how those problems are handled instead of guessing whether the page is still being maintained.
We treat accuracy, clarity, and source integrity as correction-worthy issues.
- +Broken or missing source links.
- +Claims that overstate the evidence or blur mechanism with proven outcome.
- +Product sections with outdated formulation, pricing, testing, or availability details.
- +Routing issues that send readers to the wrong article, category, or pillar.
- +Formatting errors that make warnings, disclaimers, or citations easy to miss.
Send the exact page and the exact problem.
The fastest reports include the article URL, the section or sentence in question, and a short explanation of what appears wrong. If you have a stronger source, include it.
Use the contact page for correction requests. Support-style messages without a specific page or claim are slower to verify.
Pages are updated in the publishing system, then regenerated for production.
Verify the issue
We confirm whether the problem is factual, structural, routing-related, or source-related.
Update the article record
The correction is made in the CMS-backed content record, not as a one-off live patch.
Regenerate the page
Static output is rebuilt so production reflects the corrected version cleanly.
Refresh linked systems
Related internal links, category pages, sitemap entries, and trust surfaces are updated when needed.
What we will not do
- +We do not mark outside experts as article authors unless they actually authored the content.
- +We do not keep weak medical claims live just because a page already ranks or converts.
- +We do not treat a legal disclaimer as a substitute for fixing a misleading page.
