Correction process
Corrections
How to report a factual error, what makes a report useful, how material changes will be reviewed, and what the public correction log currently contains.

Information that helps
- The exact page URL and section.
- The sentence, figure, source metadata, legal label, or accessibility issue in question.
- Why it may be inaccurate or misleading.
- A primary or authoritative source that supports the correction, when available.
- Whether the concern involves a factual error, interpretation, missing context, broken link, or disagreement about a proposal.
How review works
A correction should be checked against the cited record and, when needed, additional sources. The reviewer should determine whether the issue changes a fact, scope, legal status, interpretation, or only style. An unresolved dispute should not be labeled a correction merely because one side objects.
How material changes are labeled
Material factual corrections and changes to a guarantee’s meaning, source base, legal status, or major policy analysis should receive a dated revision note. The original error should be described plainly enough for readers to understand what changed. Routine spelling, punctuation, and layout repairs may be corrected without a public entry when meaning is unchanged.
