Editorial policy

Source priority

Official publisher and developer documentation comes first, then official store and rating board data, then documented incidents, then corroborated community reports, then single reports. The evidence label on each claim tells you which of these you are reading.

Sensitive warning claims use a stricter threshold. Self harm, suicide, and sexual violence claims never rest on one community report, and a claim marked as confirmed requires an official source or direct evidence reviewed by an editor.

Conflicts are labelled, not resolved silently

When sources disagree, the guide says so and shows both. We do not pick the more convenient answer, and we do not merge a permissive policy and a restrictive one into a middle position that neither source supports.

Corrections do not publish themselves

Reader reports are private research leads. An editor verifies them before anything on a guide changes, and an updated guide carries a new review date.

Commercial relationships

Advertising and affiliate links are switched off. If either is ever enabled, it will be disclosed on the page where it appears and on the affiliate disclosure page, and it will not change a conclusion. A publisher cannot buy a status, and a sponsorship cannot remove a warning.

Dates are factual

A review date means an editor examined the sources on that date. Dates are never refreshed by a rebuild, and a guide is never described as recently reviewed without showing when.
