Radio Waumini wants factual errors to be easy to report and straightforward to correct. We welcome specific, good-faith feedback from readers, businesses, public agencies, and subject-matter experts.
What to send
Use our [Contact page](contact.md) and include:
- the URL and page title;
- the exact sentence, table entry, image, or claim at issue;
- why you believe it is inaccurate or misleading;
- a primary or otherwise reliable source supporting the correction;
- your name and relationship to the subject, if relevant;
- whether the issue involves privacy, safety, legal risk, or another urgent concern.
Please do not send passwords, passport details, payment information, medical records, or other sensitive personal data.
How we review a request
We assess the original sourcing, the date of the information, the reliability of the new evidence, and whether the disputed point is fact, opinion, or recommendation. We may contact the submitter or subject for clarification, but we do not promise a response to every message.
A business's disagreement with a critical conclusion is not automatically a factual error. We will, however, correct inaccurate property details, policies, prices, locations, identities, quotations, or descriptions when reliable evidence supports the change.
Types of changes
- Material correction: fixes an error that could meaningfully affect a reader's understanding or decision. We add a dated correction or editor's note to the page when appropriate.
- Clarification: adds context or improves wording where the original statement was incomplete or open to a materially different reading.
- Routine update: refreshes time-sensitive information such as a policy, amenity, schedule, price example, or business status. The page may receive a new checked or updated date.
- Minor edit: corrects spelling, grammar, formatting, or a non-substantive link issue. Minor edits generally do not receive a public note.
- Retraction or removal: reserved for content whose central basis is unreliable, unlawfully published, or unsafe to keep online. When possible and appropriate, we explain the action rather than silently erasing the record.
Recommendations and changing evidence
A recommendation can change when prices, policies, management, service patterns, or available alternatives change. Updating a recommendation is not necessarily a correction, but we should explain a substantial change when readers would benefit from the context.
Persona and authorship corrections
Amaka Okafor is a disclosed fictional editorial persona. If any page implies that Amaka is a real traveler, holds credentials, or personally visited or tested the subject, please report it. That implication conflicts with our standards and should be corrected.
No paid corrections
Radio Waumini does not charge to correct a factual error. Advertising, affiliate, or business relationships do not give a party control over our correction decisions.
Appeals
If you believe we misunderstood a correction request, reply through the same contact route with the original URL, our decision if one was provided, and any new evidence. A fresh review does not guarantee a different outcome.
