Reported correction triage
Confirms the report, corrects material errors promptly, and records collection-level changes here.
How corrections work
- 1. Report. Send the page URL, disputed statement, and a stronger primary source when available.
- 2. Verify. We compare the report with the cited source and related pages in the collection.
- 3. Correct. Material errors are fixed promptly. Minor style changes may wait for the next scheduled review.
- 4. Record. Collection-level changes appear below. Resource-specific changes remain on that resource when a version history is provided.
Scope and responsibility
Manusights maintains its original educational material and link directory. We cannot control changes on publisher, funder, repository, or other external websites. A successful link check does not prove that an external statement remains unchanged, so policy-sensitive decisions should always be confirmed on the official source.
