Corrections

Material corrections are issued when a claim can be fixed without retracting the entire story.

Correction Standard

• Every correction is timestamped and linked to the story version history.
• Corrections must include a concrete rationale and updated evidence trail.
• Repeat correction patterns feed governance and reward penalty models.

What Readers Can Expect

• The story ledger keeps prior versions auditable instead of silently rewriting history.
• High-severity unresolved flags can move stories into UNDER_REVIEW before correction lands.
• If a claim cannot be corrected safely, the flow escalates to retraction/takedown.
