Corrections and disputes
How factual corrections, rights requests, and classification disputes are handled.
What to submit
A correction request should identify the page, exact passage, proposed correction, supporting source, and any relevant conflict of interest. Classification objections should explain which primary object type or attribute is disputed and why.

Procedure
- The request is logged and checked for a specific, reviewable claim.
- Primary records and authoritative sources are compared.
- The subject or contributor may be asked for missing evidence, but does not receive editorial veto.
- Minor typographical changes may be made without a dedicated correction notice.
- Substantive factual, provenance, or classification changes receive a dated article changelog entry.
- When evidence remains conflicting, the article states the conflict rather than forcing a single conclusion.
Urgent rights or safety issues
Requests involving exposed credentials, unlawful personal data, credible threats, or copyright material should state the urgency in the subject line. Hieropedia may temporarily remove material during review without treating removal as an admission of the claim.
No paid correction service
Corrections, inclusion, and classification are not sold. Donations, commercial relationships, community pressure, or token holdings do not determine editorial outcomes.
