Corrections

When we publish a factual error, we correct it. Once an issue has been raised and verified by our editorial team, the affected article is updated and a correction notice is added.

Fronts distinguishes between factual errors, which we correct, and analytical or interpretive disagreements, which we don't. Readers who disagree with our reasoning or conclusions are welcome to write in, and our team reads everything that comes through — but a disagreement with our analysis isn't a correction. That call is made by our Editor-in-Chief.

• Significant factual corrections are noted at the top of the affected article for at least 48 hours after revision, with a brief description of what was corrected.
• All corrections are recorded permanently at the bottom of the article, dated, with a description of what changed.
• Minor cosmetic edits — typos, formatting, and similar non-substantive changes — are not noted.
• If an article contains an error significant enough to materially change its conclusions, we may retract it and publish a clearly-labelled retraction in its place.
