Corrections
Silicon Canals makes mistakes. When we do, we correct them quickly, transparently, and on the same page where the original error appeared. This page explains how we handle corrections and how to flag one.
How we correct articles
When we discover or are alerted to a factual error, we update the article on the same URL where it originally appeared. Substantive corrections, those that change the meaning or accuracy of a claim, are noted at the foot of the article along with the date of the revision. Typos, formatting issues, and minor copy edits are corrected silently without a corrections notice. We do not delete and republish articles to hide a mistake.
How to flag an error
If you spot an error in something we have published, please contact us with the article URL and a description of what you believe is incorrect. Include any supporting sources where possible. We respond to corrections requests within 48 hours and update the article with a note explaining the change.
Editorial accountability
Editorial responsibility for Silicon Canals content rests with our editorial team under the direction of the Chief Publisher. The masthead identifies the people responsible for our editorial standards. See our About page for the full masthead and our Editorial Policy for our standards on accuracy, sources, and independence.
