Editorial and Corrections Policy

How Favicon.now separates sourced requirements, reproducible evidence, editorial judgment, and unverified platform behavior.

Standards behind every Favicon.now tool and guide

  1. Who creates and reviews the content

    Favicon.now publishes under the Favicon.now Editorial Team rather than inventing individual expert identities. The team label covers research, implementation, testing, editing, and maintenance performed for this site. When a named contributor or reviewer is genuinely available, their role and biography can be added without replacing the historical team attribution.

    Editorial pages distinguish verified behavior, primary-source requirements, reproducible local tests, and practical recommendations. A statement is not presented as a browser observation when no named browser, operating system, version, date, and result were recorded.

  2. Source hierarchy

    Platform, browser, search, framework, and standards claims should link to first-party documentation or a formal specification whenever one exists. Secondary sources may provide context, but they do not replace an authoritative reference for requirements that can change.

    Every guide has at least one attached source. Citations remain close to the article’s evidence record, and inaccessible or superseded references are replaced during review rather than silently preserved for appearance.

  3. Tool and evidence standard

    A working interface is documented by its real inputs, outputs, validation method, limitations, and failure states. Favicon.now does not add fabricated ratings, compatibility percentages, testimonials, or search outcomes. Generated archives and public-site audits are treated as testable artifacts, not proof of every browser or device behavior.

    The compatibility lab publishes controlled source conditions, output inventories, byte measurements, ICO frame assertions, manifest checks, raw downloads, and explicit limitations. Manual platform observations remain unclaimed until they are performed and recorded.

    Continue with the published compatibility methodology for the practical next step.

  4. AI-assisted visuals

    Some editorial illustrations may be created with generative image tools from route-specific briefs. They are presentation assets, not screenshots of test results and not evidence for factual claims. Product screenshots, code, datasets, public responses, and cited primary documentation carry the evidentiary work.

  5. Corrections, dates, and material updates

    Publication and modification dates describe the content record, not the date a crawler requested the page. A material update changes guidance, evidence, code, functionality, or conclusions; cosmetic template edits do not automatically justify changing every article date.

    Corrections should identify the affected URL, public asset or code path, platform version, expected result, and observed result. Reproducible evidence is evaluated first, and affected guidance, tests, citations, and update dates are changed together when a correction is confirmed.
