Accountability

Corrections policy

Accuracy matters more than defending an old sentence. If a published fact, source, calculation, label, or material omission is wrong, we want enough information to reproduce the problem and correct it.

Effective July 27, 2026

How to report an error

Email control@51percent.com with the page URL, the statement or result at issue, why it appears wrong, and the strongest source or calculation you have. Contact details help us ask a clarifying question, but anonymous reports can still be evaluated.

What happens next

We compare the report with the cited material, underlying inputs, and available primary sources. A disagreement in interpretation is assessed against the page's stated scope and jurisdiction. A demonstrated factual or computational error is corrected; a claim that remains uncertain is clarified or qualified.

How changes are recorded

A material correction should update the page's modified date and include a correction note explaining the substance of the change. Typographical, formatting, and broken-link repairs that do not change meaning may be fixed without a material-update note. We do not change dates merely to make old work appear new.

Review is not endorsement

Accepting a correction request does not imply agreement with a party's commercial, legal, or political position. Affiliate partners and subjects of coverage do not receive a right to approve editorial conclusions.
