Corrections Policy
Last updated: June 2025
Lekhak Duniya is committed to accuracy. When we make mistakes, we correct them promptly and transparently. This policy describes how we handle corrections to published content.
1. Types of Corrections
- Minor corrections — Typographical errors, grammatical mistakes, or formatting issues that do not affect the substance of the article. These are corrected silently.
- Factual corrections — Errors in facts, figures, names, dates, or other substantive information. These are corrected with a clearly dated correction note added to the article.
- Significant corrections — Material errors that substantially affect the article's meaning or conclusions. These receive a prominent correction notice at the top of the article explaining what was changed and why.
2. Correction Notice Format
For factual and significant corrections, we add a notice to the affected article in the format:
Correction (date): This article has been updated to correct [description of error]. The original text stated [original claim]; the correct information is [corrected claim].
3. How to Report an Error
If you believe an article contains an error, please contact us with:
- The URL of the article
- A description of the alleged error
- Supporting evidence or sources if available
We will review all credible correction requests and respond within 5 business days.
4. Retractions
If an article is found to be substantially incorrect and cannot be adequately corrected, we will retract it. A retraction notice will remain at the original URL explaining why the content was removed.
5. Opinion Content
Our corrections policy applies to factual claims in all content types, including opinion pieces. However, we do not "correct" opinions — only the factual assertions within them.
