Editorial policy

Authentic Resource aims to make resourceful choices easier to think through. We write for general readers, keep claims proportionate and make clear when a suggestion is not a universal answer.

Accuracy and clarity

We review wording for accuracy and revise material when a claim is wrong, unclear or out of date. When a subject depends on details we cannot establish, we say so rather than filling gaps with certainty. Our articles offer general information, not professional advice or instructions for safety-critical work.

Independence

Editorial decisions are made for their usefulness to readers. Commercial relationships do not determine our conclusions, and a partner cannot purchase a favourable editorial judgment.

Corrections

If you spot an error, contact us through the Contact page and identify the relevant article and passage. We assess correction requests and update material when warranted, making the change clear when it meaningfully affects a reader's understanding.

Partner material and illustrations

Paid, gifted or partner-supported material is labelled clearly where it appears and kept distinct from independent editorial coverage. Some illustrations are AI-generated; when an illustration is AI-generated, we identify it as such.
