Telegraph Middle East corrects substantive factual errors when they are confirmed and aims to explain material changes transparently.
What requires a correction
Incorrect names, dates, quotations, figures, regulatory descriptions, legal status, policy status, project status, source attribution or material context should be corrected. A change is substantive when it could alter a reasonable reader’s understanding of the story.
Minor amendments
Typographical, grammatical, formatting or link repairs may be made without a correction note when they do not change the meaning of the article. Updating a broken source link without changing the claim may also be treated as a minor amendment.
Material updates
When new information materially changes a developing story, the article should be updated and the modification time should change. Where necessary, an update note should explain what was added or clarified. A correction note should be used when the earlier publication contained a substantive error.
Headlines, images and social posts
Corrections are not limited to body text. Misleading headlines, captions, image descriptions, structured data and promotional posts should also be corrected when they communicate an inaccurate material claim.
How to request a correction
Email editorial@voxoramediagroup.com with the article URL, the passage concerned, the correction requested and supporting evidence. Primary documents or direct records are especially useful.
Review process
The newsroom reviews the published text, available source material and the evidence supplied. A request may result in a correction, clarification, update, no change or referral to the complaints process. The fact that a person disagrees with an analysis or opinion does not by itself establish a factual error.
Complaints and appeals
Concerns involving fairness, privacy, attribution or editorial conduct may be raised under the Complaints Policy. A correction request should not be used to suppress accurate reporting or replace a documented fact with a preferred description.
