Corrections policy
We get things right, and when we don't, we fix them in the open.
Accuracy is the product. When we learn that a published article contains an error of fact, we correct it promptly.
How we correct
We fix the error in the article itself and append a dated correction note to that article, describing what changed. We do not quietly edit the record. Substantive corrections update the article's modified date.
What counts as a correction
Errors of fact, a wrong figure, name, date, location, or characterization, are corrected. Clarifications that add missing context are noted where they materially change how a story reads. Typographical fixes are made without a note.
Request a correction
If you believe an article is wrong, contact the newsroom or email hello@theamericandeveloper.com. Please include the article's URL and the specific fact in question, with a source where possible. We review every request and respond.
Oversight
Corrections are overseen by the publication's editorial desk against our published standards. Read how we source and verify in our methodology.
