Editorial Policy and Standards
Geedkawayn Sports aims to publish accurate, relevant and useful sports coverage. These standards apply to news reports, analysis, explainers and roundups.
Accuracy and verification
We check names, dates, scores, competition details and quotations against reliable sources before publication. Where possible, we prioritise official competition organisers, governing bodies, clubs, teams, athlete statements and match records, then use established news organisations for context.
Sources and attribution
Articles should identify important sources and link to original reports or official announcements when available. When reliable sources disagree or a detail remains uncertain, the article should explain that uncertainty.
Transfers and developing stories
We distinguish confirmed signings and official announcements from contract discussions, reported interest and unconfirmed rumours. A rumour must not be presented as a completed transfer.
Original value
When summarising outside reporting, we aim to add context, explain why the development matters and organise information for readers. We do not intend to reproduce another publisher's article or substitute a headline rewrite for original reporting.
Headlines, images and quotations
Headlines should accurately represent the article. Images and video should be original, licensed, supplied with permission or otherwise lawfully usable. Quotations should be accurate, attributed and limited to what is necessary for reporting and commentary.
Use of AI and editorial review
Digital tools, including AI-assisted tools, may support research, drafting or editing. They do not replace editorial responsibility. Factual claims, statistics, quotations, links and final copy must be checked by a human editor before publication. We do not knowingly publish fabricated sources, invented quotations or unverified match results.
Independence and conflicts
Editorial decisions should be separate from advertising and sponsorship. Material paid relationships, sponsored content or other relevant conflicts should be disclosed clearly.
Corrections
We may update articles when material information changes. Substantive corrections should be made transparently. See our Corrections Policy.
