Corrections and complaints

LymyVoyage publishes fact-checks and research about real markets, places, and providers, and sometimes we will get something wrong. This page explains how to tell us, what we do when you do, and how corrections show up on the site.

How to report an error

Anyone can report an error -- a reader, a researcher, or someone we've written about. The most useful report includes:

• A link to the article, and the specific statement you believe is wrong.
• What you believe is correct instead.
• The evidence -- a source we can check, ideally the primary one. "This is wrong" without a source is still worth sending, but a checkable source gets it resolved much faster.

Send it to contact@lymyvoyage.com. Plain email is fine -- there's no form to fill out.

What happens next

We acknowledge correction requests within five business days. Then we re-check the disputed statement against its original sources and against whatever you've sent. Three outcomes are possible: we were wrong, and we correct the article; the statement holds, and we reply explaining why, with the sources; or the evidence genuinely cuts both ways, in which case we revise the article to report the dispute rather than picking a side.

How corrections appear

Corrected articles carry a dated note saying what was wrong and what it was changed to. We don't silently edit errors away: if a factual claim changes after publication, the note says so. Trivial fixes that don't change meaning -- typos, formatting, broken links -- are made without a note.

Corrections vs. updates

A correction means we misstated something that was knowable at the time -- our error. An update means the world moved: newer data replaced a figure that was accurate when the article was reviewed. Both get dated notes, but they're labeled differently, because they say different things about the reporting.

If we've written about you

If LymyVoyage has covered your clinic, organization, or market and you believe a finding is wrong or unfair, the same process applies, plus a commitment: we will review the evidence you send against our sources and respond with a reasoned answer -- a correction, a clarification, or an explanation of why the finding stands. Having a commercial stake in a claim doesn't disqualify your evidence; it gets checked the same way everything else does.
