Fact-Checking Policy
WorldSignal publishes explainers and analysis through a human-reviewed editorial workflow. This page describes how we verify facts before publication.
1. Source Standards
We prioritize primary and high-authority sources such as official documents, research institutions, government datasets, and direct statements.
2. Verification Workflow
- Initial draft preparation by editorial contributors.
- Claim-level checks for dates, names, numbers, and definitions.
- Context review to reduce misleading framing.
- Final human review and publication approval by the editorial desk.
3. AI-Assisted Drafting Controls
AI tools may assist with drafting and structuring. No article is auto-published. Human editors verify factual claims, rewrite for clarity, and reject low-confidence sections.
4. Editor-in-Chief Oversight
Editorial policy compliance and final standards are supervised by the Editor-in-Chief. High-impact topics receive additional review before publication.
5. Reader Feedback
If you find an issue, report it through our Corrections Policy page or contact us directly.
