Editorial policy
Useful, attributable, correctable.
The site exists to publish work people can inspect and apply, not to manufacture an appearance of authority.
Authorship
Bob Bodily is the accountable author unless another byline is visible. Contributors, technical reviewers, and researchers are named when their work materially shapes a page. A byline is not assigned merely for reputation.
Sources and links
Material factual claims use the strongest available source, preferably primary documentation or direct measured evidence. External links are editorial, not endorsements. Links are not sold. Sponsored or affiliate relationships will be labeled near the relevant recommendation if they ever exist.
Originality
New pages must add first-hand evidence, a useful synthesis, a tool, an explicit decision framework, or another distinct form of information gain. Near-duplicate pages are merged. No publication quota justifies thin work.
AI use
AI tools may assist research organization, drafting, code, test generation, and adversarial review. A human verifies material claims, sources, examples, and final recommendations. Generated text is not a source and is not published merely to create volume.
Commercial influence
Bob sells consulting and may write about categories in which he works. That interest is disclosed on comparative and commercial pages. Clients do not receive undisclosed favorable coverage, and payment cannot improve a research or expert score.
Updates
Every article carries a visible update date and review target. Platform-dependent guidance is reviewed more often than durable principles. Material corrections follow the public corrections process.
