Corrections

We make mistakes. When we do, we correct them visibly, and we keep a public log of those corrections so readers can see we have done so.

How to request a correction

Email corrections@retroshell.com with the article URL, the specific passage you believe is incorrect, and (where possible) a link to a source that supports the correct version. We aim to respond within 24 hours and to publish or decline a correction within 72 hours, whichever is sooner.

What we correct

  • Factual errors (names, dates, prices, specs, platforms, companies): corrected in-line with an editor’s note at the bottom of the article.
  • Misattribution: if we credited the wrong source, we update the attribution and note the change.
  • Significant mischaracterisation: if the overall framing of a story is wrong, we rewrite the affected passage and add a visible note.
  • Retractions: for the rarest cases where an entire story is wrong, we strike the original headline with a line through it, keep the URL live to preserve inbound links, and replace the body with a retraction explanation.

What we do not do

We do not silently edit articles. Any substantive change to a published article produces a dated editor’s note at the bottom of the piece.

Correction log

A running public log of past corrections lives below. Entries are kept for a minimum of five years.

  • (No corrections on file yet. This log will grow as the site matures.)

Requests involving alleged copyright infringement, defamation or private-information complaints should go to legal@retroshell.com. We follow the UK Editors’ Code of Practice and will engage reasonably. Frivolous or intimidating legal threats will be ignored and, where relevant, reported.
