Source count
Sensitive articles need enough evidence before publication.
Image provenance
Generated and licensed images should be tracked.
Review flags
Automation can prepare, but review rules decide status.
Reader trust
Transparency is part of the product.
How AI May Be Used
AI tools may help with research organization, outlines, metadata, summaries, image prompts, translation support, quality checks and workflow automation.
AI can also generate original visuals when licensed or official media is not available, provided the image is labelled in metadata and does not mislead readers about a real event.
How AI May Not Be Used
AI must not invent sources, fabricate quotes, create fake eyewitness material or publish sensitive news without human review.
AI-generated images should not be used to imply a real photograph of a real event unless clearly created as an editorial illustration.
Source Standards
Sources are prioritized in this order: official documents, primary institutions, established news organizations, expert publications, then secondary references.
For sensitive topics, at least two reliable sources are expected. For evergreen culture and heritage, institutional or specialist sources are preferred.
Internal Metadata
The site stores editorial metadata such as source count, risk level, AI notes, image provenance and review requirement. These fields help prevent accidental auto-publication of sensitive material.
The presence of AI metadata does not mean an article is unfinished. It means the workflow is documented.
