Editorial Policy

This page explains how articles on TrickyWorld are researched, written, checked and kept up to date, so you can judge how far to trust them.

Sources

• News articles are based on primary sources: official release notes, documentation, changelogs, security advisories and CVE records, and the maintainers' own announcements. Each one links to its source.
• Version numbers, dates, figures, API names and flags are taken from the source, never from memory.
• Opinion is marked as opinion ("I'd", "my take"), so you can tell it from the facts.

How AI is used

Some news articles start as drafts from an AI writing assistant. It works only from the article's source, and a separate automated check compares every claim in the draft with that source; drafts that fail are discarded. Each AI-assisted article says so at the end.

An AI draft is never published automatically. I read and edit every one and publish it myself. When I've run or tested something for an article, its hands-on notes say exactly what. Thumbnails are illustrations drawn for the article, not photographs.

Testing

Commands and code in the hands-on notes are ones I ran. Code in the body of a news article comes from, or is checked against, the source documentation. When something only applies to a particular version or platform, the article says which.

Corrections

If you find an error, please report it through the contact page. Factual mistakes are corrected as soon as they are confirmed, and a significant correction is noted in the article.

Updates

Articles are updated when the software they describe changes in a way that matters to the reader. The date shown as "updated" changes only when the content does — not for a spelling fix or a new link.
