Correction Standard
DataSplinter should be corrected when a source-backed error is found. Corrections are reviewed against public records, source documents, and available documentation.

What Helps
A useful correction identifies the page, the exact statement or figure, the source record, the page or section in that record, and the proposed correction. Screenshots are helpful, but source links and document references matter most.
What May Change
Corrections may update figures, labels, links, plain-English explanations, document references, or date language. A correction may also add a note where records conflict or where the source packet is incomplete.
What This Process Does Not Do
The correction process is not a dispute forum and does not decide legal, political, or personal conclusions. It focuses on whether the public-record summary accurately reflects the cited records.
Source Conflicts
If official sources conflict, the page should say that plainly instead of guessing. The preferred update is a clear note describing the conflict and linking to the relevant records.
Privacy and Names
For project pages that use masked labels, corrections should preserve the page's masking rules. DataSplinter may link to source records that contain public names, but it does not add those names to masked analysis sections or shipped data.
