Trust by process

Publication begins with the right to make a claim

This standard defines who owns a piece, how claims are checked and why drafts remain unpublished until substantive review.

01 / Rules

Our commitments to the reader

01

Named accountability

Published work has a named author or accountable editorial team. Specialist topics identify the practitioner who reviewed the substance.

02

Primary sources

Dates, requirements, rules and figures are checked against official documents. Secondary sources provide context rather than replace primary verification.

03

Format transparency

Editorial, partner, sponsored and owned content are not conflated. The provenance of every public asset remains in the registry.

04

Scope of competence

PR content does not become legal, financial, medical or other licensed advice. A qualified professional is involved where such assessment is needed.

05

AI as a tool, not an authority

AI may assist with structure, wording options and technical processing. Facts, experience, conclusions and final accountability remain under human review.

06

Corrections without camouflage

Material factual errors are corrected with an updated date and internal reason log. Dates do not change merely to simulate freshness.

07

Bylines and editorial assistance

A bylined article requires the named author’s substantive knowledge, data or position and review of the final text. Our team may draft from interviews and sources, but may not attribute another person’s experience to the client. Coauthors, editors and writing assistance are credited according to actual contributions and publisher rules.

08

Scientific authorship

Payment, suggesting a topic or approving a manuscript does not by itself establish scientific authorship. We document contributions to the question, methods, data, analysis, interpretation and writing. Authorship, acknowledgments and conflicts of interest follow the journal’s rules. We do not sell authorship, fabricate data or conceal material contributions.

09

Rankings and material connections

If we or our client organized or funded a ranking, developed its method or participated in assessment, that involvement must be disclosed beside the result. It must not be represented as independent recognition. Compensation, discounts, employment and referral relationships must be disclosed clearly with the endorsement.

10

Testimonials and substantiation

We do not invent reviews, present generated characters as clients, condition rewards on positive sentiment or suppress legitimate criticism. Numerical claims and case studies require written evidence, counting methods and permissions before publication. Editing must preserve the meaning of a genuine quotation; an individual outcome is not assumed to be typical.

02 / Quality gate

Five steps before publication

  1. 01 Editorial brief and reader intent
  2. 02 Initial draft and claim map
  3. 03 Named practitioner commentary
  4. 04 Source and scope review
  5. 05 Publication, date and update log
03 / Controls

Indexation is the final checkbox

Drafts, unsupported materials and pages awaiting expert review are not published: they are excluded from navigation and the sitemap and are unavailable by direct URL. Publication requires substantive review, necessary permissions and link checks.

To suggest a correction, send the page URL, disputed passage and primary source to admin@expertizeme.org. Material changes go through the same controls as the original publication.
