Correction standard
When a factual error is identified, Osoyoos News aims to correct the article, add clarifying context, update a broken link, unpublish the item or delete and block it when necessary.
What to include
A useful correction request includes the article URL, the exact statement or missing context, the reason it is wrong or incomplete and the strongest available supporting source. Screenshots can help, but a public source link is even better.
What may happen next
Depending on the issue, an administrator may edit the article, update the source link, add a clarification, unpublish the article, or permanently delete and block the item from automatic republication.
Source disputes
If an article is based on an outside publisher or official notice, Osoyoos News may compare the article against the original source and any newer official information. If the source itself changes, the article may be updated or labelled accordingly.
No ego policy
Corrections are not treated as insults. Local information should be accurate, and readers who point out genuine problems are helping make the site better.
How to request a correction
Use the correction form rather than a general message so the request includes the article URL and evidence fields.
