How we work

Editorial Policy

Last updated: June 2025

1. Verification-first

Every article on తెలుగు నాలెడ్జ్ must be based on verified sources. ప్రతి piece కీ minimum 1–2 credible sources (research paper, university, government, official press release) required.

2. AI as assistant, not author

We use AI (Claude Sonnet 4.5) for research assistance, drafting, editing, SEO suggestions, and readability analysis. But every article passes through a human editorial pipeline: Draft → Human Review → Fact Check → Editor Approval → Ready to Publish → Published.

3. Transparency

Confirmed facts, possible claims, and unknowns are shown separately. Update history and corrections are visible on the article page.

4. Original value

We don't merely repost or expand from social media. Each article adds background, timeline, context, comparison, expert interpretation, limitations, and citation of sources.

5. Language standards

Natural conversational Telugu. అనువాదపు తెలుగు కాదు. English-heavy translated phrasing రెడీ రైటే avoid.

6. Corrections

See our Corrections Policy. When we get something wrong, we update transparently.
