EDITORIAL STANDARDS · ISSUE 001

Accurate. Specific.
Open to correction.

Our standard is not a promise that an error can never occur. It is a process that makes important claims traceable, examples clearly labeled, and corrections visible.

01

Selection and reader value

Every story must answer a real reader question and include practical steps, suitable conditions, and limitations. We do not publish pages solely to capture a search phrase, or reproduce the same article with substituted keywords.

02

Sources and verification

For products, public policy, security, and standards, we prefer official documentation, standards bodies, original research, and traceable public institutions. A link supports continued checking and does not endorse everything a source publishes. Time-sensitive material carries a visible modification date.

03

Examples and evidence

Constructed situations are labeled as examples. We do not fabricate experiments, reviews, institutional endorsements, testimonials, or firsthand experience. General guidance is distinguished from factual reporting. High-risk topics do not replace qualified professional advice.

04

AI assistance and limits

AI-assisted drafting may be used to organize or clarify explanatory material. FACET does not present these guides as firsthand product tests, interviews, or original experiments. Quotations, numbers, dates, and external links must return to a source, and constructed situations are labeled as examples. Readers should use the linked material and current product documentation to verify consequential decisions.

05

Revisions and corrections

Minor spelling and layout repairs may occur without a separate notice. Corrections that change understanding will update the modification date and include an explanation where appropriate. To report an issue, send the article URL, exact passage, and a source that can be checked.
