Author Policy

Who authors our articles

Every article on this site carries a named author in the byline. The author is the person who researched, wrote and fact-checked the piece, not a marketing persona or an AI alias. Where an article was produced with editorial tooling, a human editor reviews, verifies and takes responsibility for the final text before publication.

What we require from authors

  • Real expertise. Authors write within their field of experience (e.g. automotive diagnostics, consumer electronics) and only claim hands-on knowledge they actually have.
  • Fact-checking. Every measurable statement — specifications, prices, test figures, dates — must be backed by a verifiable source recorded in our evidence system. Unsourced claims are flagged and corrected before publication.
  • No invented ratings. We do not award scores, ratings or “official” endorsements we cannot document.
  • Disclosure of affiliate relationships. Articles that contain affiliate links say so near the first commercial element (see our Affiliate Disclosure).

How we correct mistakes

If you spot an error — wrong spec, outdated price, unclear attribution — please tell us via the contact page. Corrections follow our Correction Policy: we verify the report, fix the article, and log what changed and when.
