Corrections Policy
Science and technology are built on the foundational idea that knowledge is iterative. We learn, test, adapt our knowledge as our understanding evolves. At Geekswipe, we apply this same scientific method to our editorial process.
While we strive for absolute accuracy in our physics explanations, code snippets, and tech explorations, we acknowledge that we are humans. Bugs and blunders happen. When they do, we are committed to fixing them transparently, swiftly, and thoroughly.
How we classify and handle updates
To keep our content reliable and our reading experience smooth, we categorize updates into three distinct types:
Factual errors
If we make a factual error regarding a scientific concept, mathematical equation, historical event, or technical process, we will correct the text as quickly as possible.
We will amend the article and append a clear correction note at the top or bottom of the page if applicable.
Content updates
Technology moves fast, and scientific consensus evolves. If an older article features outdated software practices, superseded theories, or deprecated code, this is not a correction but an evolution of facts.
In such cases, we will update the article to reflect current standards.
Minor tweaks
Spelling mistakes, broken links, formatting bugs, and grammatical errors do not change the core facts or scientific integrity of an article.
In such occurrences, we fix these minor issues immediately upon discovery.
Spot a bug or factual error? Let us know!
We consider our readers to be an essential part of our peer-review process. If you are an expert in your field, an eagle-eyed student, or just someone who spotted a misplaced decimal point in any of our articles, we want to hear from you.
To report an error, please reach out via our contact page.
When reaching out, please help us with the following information:
- The URL of the article.
- A brief description of the error.
- If possible, a link to a verifiable primary source (like documentation or a peer-reviewed paper) so our editorial team can verify the correction swiftly.
Thank you for your time and effort to keep Geekswipe error-free. :)
