Accountability
Corrections policy
We correct errors openly, and we publish replies from the people we write about.
Corrections
When we get something wrong, we fix it on the file and add a dated entry to its revision history describing what changed. We do not silently edit published facts.
Right of reply
Anyone named in a file may send a response. We publish it in full or in fair summary in the file's “Responses and disputes” section.
Takedown and legal requests
Legal, privacy and copyright requests are reviewed by editors and counsel. Where material is withdrawn, the file is marked as withdrawn rather than deleted without explanation, unless the law requires otherwise.
Response times
We aim to acknowledge requests within two working days.
