Editorial standards

Evidence & scope

Articles should link to the primary sources behind material technical claims. Documented behavior, results from tests actually performed, and the author's interpretation should be distinguishable.

Examples should identify relevant versions and conditions. A result from one environment should not be presented as a guarantee for every environment.

A documentation-based guide is labeled as such. Describing a test requires that the test was actually run and that its conditions and limitations can be explained.

Dates & corrections

Publication dates identify when an article first appeared publicly. Source-check dates identify when the cited materials were checked. They are different events.

Update dates should reflect substantive changes to an article. Material corrections should explain what changed and why, alongside the affected content.

AI assistance

AI may assist with drafting, research organization, or code exploration. Its output is not treated as evidence. AI assistance does not remove the need to check primary sources, inspect code, or accurately describe tests.

Before publication, articles require an editorial check of their sources, scope, and claims, and the operator's authorization to publish. That review may be delegated and may use AI assistance. Publication approval does not certify a procedure as tested or guarantee that an article is free of errors; material corrections should remain visible.

Independence

The content is part of an independently operated personal project. The publication does not represent any employer, university, or research institution.

Non-public institutional research, code, and data are outside the project's development scope. Public availability alone does not remove the need to check applicable rights and licenses.

Commercial relationships

Articles should disclose relevant sponsorships, affiliate arrangements, and other relationships that could affect a reader's interpretation. A commercial relationship should not be presented as independent evidence of a product's quality.
