Corrections Policy
Global Power Industry News is committed to publishing accurate, reliable and transparent information. We recognize that errors can occur despite reasonable editorial review, particularly when covering complex technical subjects, changing power markets and developing infrastructure projects.
When a material error is identified, we aim to investigate and correct it clearly and promptly.
Reporting an Error
Readers, industry professionals, companies and other interested parties may report a possible error in any content published on Global Power Industry News.
A correction request should preferably include:
- The title and URL of the article
- The statement or section believed to be incorrect
- A brief explanation of the issue
- Supporting documentation or a reliable source
- The sender’s name and contact information
Correction requests may be sent to:
Email: [insert editorial email address]
Contact page: [insert Contact page link]
Providing evidence helps us evaluate correction requests accurately and efficiently.
How We Review Correction Requests
All credible correction requests are reviewed in good faith.
Our review may include:
- Rechecking the original source material
- Consulting official publications or technical documents
- Reviewing calculations, units and equipment terminology
- Comparing information with additional reliable sources
- Consulting the author or a qualified industry professional
- Requesting further evidence from the person reporting the error
Submitting a correction request does not automatically mean that the disputed material is incorrect. Changes are made when the available evidence supports a correction, clarification or update.
We aim to acknowledge substantial correction requests within seven working days. Complex technical or disputed matters may require additional investigation.
Types of Changes
Minor Corrections
Minor errors that do not alter the meaning or central conclusion of an article may be corrected without a formal correction notice.
These may include:
- Spelling mistakes
- Typographical errors
- Punctuation and formatting problems
- Broken links
- Minor grammatical improvements
- Obvious formatting errors in names, dates or units
Material Corrections
A material error is one that could significantly affect a reader’s understanding of the subject.
Examples include:
- An incorrect technical specification
- A materially incorrect calculation
- Misidentification of equipment, a facility or an organization
- An incorrect project status or commissioning date
- A misleading statement about operating conditions
- Incorrect generation-capacity, investment or performance data
- Misquotation or incorrect attribution
- An unsupported conclusion presented as a verified fact
When a material correction is made, a correction note will normally be added to the article explaining what was changed.
A correction note may use the following format:
Correction — [date]: An earlier version of this article stated [incorrect information]. It has been corrected to [correct information].
Clarifications
Sometimes an article may be factually accurate but require additional context to prevent misunderstanding.
In such cases, we may add a clarification rather than issue a correction. The clarification will explain the additional context or distinction.
A clarification may use the following format:
Clarification — [date]: This article has been updated to clarify [subject or distinction].
Updates
Power projects, regulations, operating statistics and market conditions may change after an article is published. Adding newer information does not necessarily mean the original article contained an error.
When substantial new information is added, we may include an update notice:
Update — [date]: This article has been updated to include [description of new information].
The original publication date should be retained where possible, with the latest modification date displayed separately.
Article Withdrawal
In exceptional circumstances, an article may be withdrawn when:
- Its central claims cannot be verified
- It contains extensive plagiarism or copyright infringement
- It creates a serious technical or safety risk
- It contains unlawfully disclosed confidential information
- Its deficiencies are too extensive to correct reliably
- Continued publication could cause significant and unjustified harm
Where appropriate, the original URL may remain available with a notice explaining that the article has been withdrawn and providing a general reason.
Removal requests based only on disagreement, criticism or reputational discomfort will not automatically result in withdrawal. Requests will be assessed according to accuracy, public interest, legal obligations and editorial standards.
Technical and Safety Corrections
Corrections involving plant operations, maintenance procedures, electrical systems, pressurized equipment, fuel systems, rotating machinery or other safety-critical subjects receive particular attention.
If published information may present an immediate safety concern, Global Power Industry News may temporarily remove or amend the affected material while it is being investigated.
Readers must remember that website content is provided for general educational purposes. Approved plant procedures, OEM manuals, applicable regulations and instructions from authorized personnel always take precedence.
Changes to Opinions and Analysis
A correction is appropriate when an opinion article contains a factual error. However, a difference of professional judgement does not necessarily constitute an error.
We may add context or an editor’s note when credible evidence substantially affects an article’s analysis, but we do not normally remove an opinion solely because another professional reaches a different conclusion.
Forecasts and projections are based on information available at the time of publication. A forecast that later proves inaccurate is not automatically a factual error, although the article may be updated to reflect subsequent developments.
Sources and Attribution Corrections
If a source, quotation, photograph, chart or technical document has been incorrectly attributed, we will correct the attribution as promptly as reasonably possible.
Where third-party material has been used without suitable permission or attribution, we may:
- Add the correct credit
- Replace the material
- Remove the affected material
- Add a correction notice when appropriate
Copyright or ownership concerns should include sufficient information to identify the protected material and the person or organization making the request.
Reader Comments and Social Media
Corrections made to an article may also be communicated on relevant social-media channels when the original error was significant or widely distributed.
Comments pointing out possible errors will be reviewed, but posting a comment does not guarantee that the issue will be noticed immediately. Email or the Contact page is the preferred method for submitting correction requests.
Transparency and Editorial Record
We aim to preserve the integrity of the publication record. Material corrections should be explained rather than silently changed.
Correction notices should state:
- The date of the correction
- What information was incorrect or incomplete
- What change was made
We will not normally identify the person who reported an error unless that person has granted permission or identification is necessary for transparency.
Appeals
If a person believes a correction request was not properly considered, they may request a second review by replying to the editorial response and providing additional evidence.
The outcome of the second review will represent Global Power Industry News’s final editorial decision unless significant new evidence becomes available.
