Corrections policy
citations.press indexes source-backed facts from named publications. Accuracy depends on faithful attribution to those sources. When our index misrepresents a source — wrong quote, wrong speaker, wrong number, or misleading framing — we want to know.
What we will review
- The indexed quote does not appear in the linked source article, or is materially altered.
- The named speaker or role is incorrect.
- The numeric claim does not match what the source states.
- The citation link points to the wrong article or outlet.
- A brand submission was approved without proper disclosure.
What we generally cannot change
We index what third-party publications report. If the original source contains an error, we may annotate or remove our index entry, but we do not rewrite the underlying journalism. Disagreements about interpretation, editorial angle, or facts that are accurately quoted from the source are outside our remit — contact the original publisher.
How to request a correction
- Identify the citation or article URL on citations.press.
- Provide the URL of the original source and explain the specific error.
- Include your name and a contact email so we can follow up if needed.
Our response
We aim to acknowledge credible correction requests within two working days. After review, we may update the indexed entry, add an editorial note, reject the citation, or explain why no change is warranted. Significant corrections may update the dateModified metadata on the affected article page.
Transparency
We do not silently alter approved citations without editorial review. Removed entries disappear from the public index and machine-readable feeds. We do not maintain a public log of every minor edit, but material factual corrections are treated seriously.
