Corrections Policy
Last Updated: June 8, 2026
Uncrowned Empire is a network of websites, communities, and publications owned by Uncrowned Empire, LLC.
This Corrections Policy explains how we handle errors, clarifications, updates, outdated information, article changes, media corrections, disclosure issues, and reader correction reports across Uncrowned Empire sites.
This policy applies to official editorial content published by Uncrowned Empire and its sites, including:
Any other website, publication, tool, or community operated by Uncrowned Empire, LLC
Our goal is simple:
When something is wrong, unclear, outdated, or materially changed, we want to correct it in a way that helps readers understand what happened.
Our Correction Philosophy
Uncrowned Empire believes accuracy matters.
We also recognize that news, guides, tools, software, games, platforms, products, prices, public information, events, policies, online services, and real-world situations can change quickly.
When we make a mistake or publish information that later changes, we prefer to correct, clarify, update, or label the content rather than remove it entirely.
We do not believe mistakes should simply disappear. When appropriate, we preserve the article, guide, page, or record and clearly explain what changed so readers can understand the context.
What This Policy Covers
This policy mainly applies to official Uncrowned Empire editorial content, including:
News articles
Game updates
Technology updates
Platform updates
Guides
Official site pages
Official announcements
Official video content
Article or page audio versions
Official images, graphics, charts, screenshots, and media attached to editorial content
AI use notices and editorial disclosures
Affiliate, sponsorship, monetization, or other required disclosures
This policy does not strictly apply to user-driven forums, comments, private messages, community blogs, profiles, or other community-created content.
Those areas are handled through user edits, moderation tools, and our Community Guidelines. We encourage good correction ethics across the community, but we do not apply the same formal editorial correction process to every user post, comment, or blog.
Types of Changes and Corrections
Not every edit needs the same treatment. Some changes are minor cleanup, while others materially affect the article, guide, page, or reader understanding.
Minor Edits
Minor edits may be corrected silently.
These may include:
Typos
Grammar fixes
Formatting issues
Broken punctuation
Small layout problems
Minor wording cleanup
Broken links that are restored to the same intended destination
Minor edits usually do not receive a formal correction note unless the mistake affected the meaning of the content.
For example, a simple spelling error may be fixed silently. However, a typo in a release date, price, platform name, product name, event date, software version, statistic, source name, or key factual claim may require a correction note if it affected the information readers received.
Editors are encouraged to use the site’s edit timestamp feature when making meaningful changes, but not every typo, formatting fix, or minor cleanup will receive a public timestamp or correction note.
Standard Corrections and Clarifications
A standard correction or clarification may be needed when content contains information that is wrong, incomplete, unclear, outdated, or potentially misleading.
This may include:
Incorrect names
Incorrect dates
Incorrect prices
Incorrect product, platform, game, software, or service availability
Incorrect patch notes, changelogs, version details, or update information
Incorrect technical details
Incorrect event information
Incorrect historical details
Incorrect attribution or source credit
Wrong screenshots, images, charts, graphics, or media
Missing context
Misleading wording
Incorrect or changed rumor, leak, or unconfirmed information
Outdated guide information that affects the usefulness of the guide
Incorrect disclosure, AI-use notice, affiliate notice, or sponsorship notice
When these issues directly affect the content being provided, editors are advised to add a visible correction or clarification note.
Some Uncrowned Empire sites may provide a dedicated Corrections field for articles. When used, this field may place the correction near the top of the article and highlight it for readers.
Editors are encouraged to use the correction tools available on the relevant site when they benefit the reader, but we leave the exact correction format to the editor’s judgment.
The goal is not to follow a rigid format for every situation. The goal is to make the correction clear, useful, and easy for readers to understand.
Major Corrections and Updates
A major correction or update may be needed when the content’s central claim, main point, or reader takeaway has materially changed.
This may include:
A rumor or leak being debunked
A major claim being proven wrong
A source retracting or correcting information
A software, game, platform, product, or service update being significantly different than first reported
A release date, event date, price, availability, or platform claim being materially incorrect
A guide becoming outdated in a way that could mislead readers
A technical, historical, legal, safety, or policy-related claim being materially wrong
A story changing in a way that affects the article’s main meaning
A correction that changes how readers should understand or act on the content
Major corrections and updates should usually appear near the top of the article, guide, or page.
Editors are advised to use a Corrections field, update notice, editor’s note, or another visible format when appropriate.
If content is substantially updated, the note should explain what changed and, when useful, why it changed.
Outdated Guides, Tools, and Resources
Guides, tools, calculators, explainers, resource pages, and help articles can become outdated when games, software, platforms, products, laws, policies, services, interfaces, pricing, hardware, safety guidance, or public information changes.
When a guide or resource is outdated, editors may:
Update the content
Add a correction or update note
Label the content as outdated
Leave the content available for historical reference with a notice
Remove or replace sections that are no longer accurate
Redirect readers to a newer version where appropriate
If outdated information directly affects the usefulness, accuracy, safety, or reader understanding of the content, editors are advised to make that clear near the top of the page.
Broken Links
Broken links may be silently fixed when the replacement restores the same intended destination.
If a critical source link is unavailable and is replaced with a different source, editors are advised to add a note when the change matters to the content.
If a restored link was important to sourcing or context, editors may also add a notice that the link has been restored.
Rumors, Leaks, and Unconfirmed Claims
Leaks, rumors, and unconfirmed claims are handled carefully because the information is often uncertain when first published.
If a rumor, leak, or unconfirmed claim is later confirmed, debunked, clarified, corrected, retracted, or materially changed, the article may be updated with a visible note.
If the original claim was wrong, we generally prefer to label or update the article rather than remove it.
If a rumor was clearly false, harmful, privacy-invasive, based on stolen private data, or based on material we should not host, the article may be corrected, reframed, partially removed, or removed case by case.
We do not treat old rumor articles as confirmed news simply because they remain published. When possible, we update them so readers can see what changed.
Audio Corrections
Some Uncrowned Empire articles, guides, pages, or resources may include human-recorded or AI-generated audio versions.
If written content is corrected after audio has been published, the editor may decide whether the audio should be replaced, regenerated, removed, or left in place with a written note.
Editors are advised to remove audio if it now gives incorrect information and cannot be quickly replaced.
In some cases, the audio may remain if the difference is minor and the written article remains clear and accurate.
When audio differs from a corrected article in a meaningful way, but is still useful or accurate in context, it is advisable to leave a correction note explaining that the audio may differ and why.
AI-Related Corrections
AI-assisted content is corrected the same way as human-written content.
If AI contributed to an error, Uncrowned Empire is still responsible when the content appears as official Uncrowned Empire content.
AI-use notice mistakes may be corrected.
If the mistake is caught quickly and does not materially mislead readers, it may be fixed without a full correction note.
However, intentionally applying the wrong AI-use notice and changing it only after the article, guide, page, video, or media item has passed its main readership window is not acceptable.
Audio, video, image, article, guide, and page AI-use notices may also be corrected when inaccurate.
More details are available in our AI Use Policy.
Affiliate, Sponsored, and Disclosure Corrections
Official Uncrowned Empire editorial content should not be written as undisclosed affiliate or sponsored content.
Some links may be affected by affiliate systems or monetization tools, as explained in our Affiliate Disclosure and Monetization Policy.
If a disclosure issue occurs, it should be corrected in line with those policies.
Editors are not allowed to create official articles, guides, or pages for the purpose of driving affiliate revenue.
If affiliate, sponsorship, review-copy, free-product, AI-use, correction, or other material disclosure information is missing or inaccurate, it should be corrected when discovered.
Images, Screenshots, Charts, and Media
If official content uses the wrong screenshot, image, graphic, chart, video, audio clip, document, file, map, diagram, or other media, the editor should correct or replace it.
If the wrong media directly affected the article’s meaning, accuracy, attribution, safety, context, or reader understanding, editors are advised to add a correction note.
Misleading media, fake screenshots, deceptive AI images, fake charts, manipulated evidence, deepfakes, or media that violates our Community Guidelines may be removed or replaced.
Content Removal
Uncrowned Empire prefers correction over removal.
When possible, we will edit, correct, clarify, update, label, or remove only the affected part of an article, guide, page, or media item before considering full removal.
However, full or partial removal may be necessary in limited cases, including:
Legal concerns
Privacy issues
Stolen or private data
Harmful misinformation
Unsafe instructions or safety concerns
Wrong or misleading media
Duplicate articles or duplicate pages
Security concerns
Valid publisher, rights-holder, source, or involved-party concerns
Content that violates our Community Guidelines
Content that cannot be corrected in a reasonable or responsible way
Removal decisions are handled case by case.
If an article or page is duplicated and caught quickly, we may merge or remove the duplicate.
If duplicate content has already been published for some time, we may leave both available with a correction or duplication note.
Official Corrections From Involved Parties
We welcome factual corrections from involved parties, including:
Developers
Publishers
PR representatives
Tournament organizers
Platform holders
Event organizers
Companies
Product makers
Software developers
Researchers
Public agencies
Rights holders
Subject-matter experts
Other relevant parties
Correction requests may be reviewed and used when they improve accuracy for readers.
However, outside parties do not receive approval rights over our coverage.
Involved parties may provide corrections, official responses, technical details, source material, or additional context.
Editors should not disregard correct information, and it is often advisable to add official responses to articles when doing so improves the reader experience.
However, final editorial judgment remains with Uncrowned Empire.
How Readers Can Report Corrections
Readers can report possible errors, corrections, or missing context in several ways.
The best option is usually to contact the article’s editor or site staff directly through the site’s private message system when available.
Readers may also use:
Article comments
Site comments
Social media messaging
Email, if an editor publicly lists one
Please note that article comments may be missed, and editors are not required to monitor every comment section for correction reports.
Social media messages may also not reach the editor directly, and Uncrowned Empire is not obligated to monitor social platforms for corrections.
The contact form goes to administrative staff and may take time to reach the correct editor or site team.
If an editor publicly lists an email address, readers may use it, but email is considered off-platform communication.
No Guaranteed Response Time
Uncrowned Empire is a small team, and we do not promise a fixed correction response time.
We review correction reports as time and staffing allow.
We prioritize issues that materially affect accuracy, safety, attribution, pricing, availability, privacy, reader understanding, or the article’s main point.
Good correction reports should include:
The article, guide, page, or content title
The relevant link
The issue being reported
Any source, evidence, screenshot, document, or explanation that supports the correction
Our Commitment
Uncrowned Empire wants readers to trust that our content is handled honestly, even when mistakes happen.
We will not always catch every typo, outdated guide, broken link, changed rumor, outdated product detail, or corrected claim immediately.
However, when meaningful errors are found, our goal is to correct them in a way that is clear, useful, and fair to readers.
We prefer transparency over quiet erasure, corrections over removals, and context over confusion.
