When we get it wrong, we say so.

A platform that synthesizes contested expert discourse will get things wrong. The aggregator pipeline catches most material errors before publish — through automated reviewers, cite-or-die enforcement, cross-vendor verification, and editorial spot checks — but the ones that get past those gates land in this log. There is no edit-history sleight of hand on SiftingSignal: when something material is wrong, we update the synthesis and we publish the entry below.

The corrections log is one of the few primitives we treat as load-bearing for reader trust. If this page is sparse, that means either the pipeline is working or we are not catching errors fast enough. We expect to log the first few corrections soon after launch.

An entry lands here when a published synthesis is found to be materially wrong — meaning a tier reading misstated, a citation that does not support the claim it is attached to, a quote misattributed to a person who did not say it, or a factual claim contradicted by primary evidence. Stylistic edits, typo fixes, and formatting updates do not appear in the corrections log; they are handled silently as part of normal editorial maintenance.

When a correction lands, three things happen in order: the published synthesis is updated with a visible "Corrected on [date]" note, the original claim is preserved in our internal audit log, and the public entry is added to this page with a permalink. The entry stays here permanently. The corrections log is append-only.

You can also subscribe to corrections via RSS — every new entry pushes to the feed within an hour of publication.

If you think a published synthesis is wrong, email [email protected] with:

• The synthesis URL or topic identifier.
• The specific claim you believe is wrong, quoted verbatim from the page.
• The source (link to primary evidence, citation to a paper, official statement) that you believe resolves the question.

The editorial team reviews error reports within 5 business days for the media and AI niches, and within 48 hours for health and money where the cost of a misread is higher. If your report leads to a correction, you will see your report acknowledged in the correction entry below.
