Corrections
A site that checks other people's accuracy has to be accountable for its own. Nothing here is quietly deleted.
The policy
- Errors of fact are corrected, not removed. The article stays at its original URL, the wrong text is fixed, and a dated note explaining what changed is added to the article and to the log below.
- If a correction changes the verdict, we say so. The note records the old rating and the new one. A verdict that moves is the most important thing we can tell you.
- Typos and broken links are fixed silently. If it doesn't change the meaning, it doesn't need a note.
- Right of reply. If the subject of a check disputes it and supplies evidence, we assess the evidence and publish the outcome either way.

Send it to corrections@egglify.appwith a link to the article and, ideally, a source. Substantive challenges get a response and, where warranted, a correction.
The log
- Bradford says Chow declined every chance to act on public safety. She voted for his own safety motion in March.
When first published, this article said Mayor Chow's letter to the Prime Minister could not be obtained, and declined to rate the claim about its contents. The letter has since been obtained and read in full; the claim about it is accurate and now carries its own rating, True, in a separate article. This article's verdict is unchanged.
