Editorial policy
Principles
- Accuracy over speed. We only publish when there are at least two reliable, independent sources on the same fact. Otherwise the article stays as a draft.
- Primary sources first. We prefer the scientific paper, the institution's official release or the data from the responsible agency.
- Nothing made up. Numbers, names, dates and conclusions must be in the sources. The automatic check blocks numbers that do not appear in them.
- Preprints flagged. Studies not yet peer reviewed are identified as preprints and never presented as consensus.
- No sensationalism. No promises of cures, exaggerations or misleading headlines.
- Our own words. We rewrite in our own words, without copying long passages, always crediting and linking the source.
Use of artificial intelligence
Articles are written and translated with the help of artificial intelligence, go through automatic checks and are reviewed by the team through the admin panel. AI can make mistakes, so every article shows its sources, the checks performed and a way to report corrections.
Corrections
When new evidence appears or an error is found, the article is corrected, its update date changes and a note explains what changed.
Sources we follow
Scientific journals (such as Nature, Science, PNAS, Cell, The Lancet, PLOS, eLife), agencies (NASA, ESA, NIH, WHO), institutes and universities (ESO, CERN, MIT, USP, FAPESP) and scholarly databases (Crossref, Europe PMC, OpenAlex). The list is reviewed regularly.
