At NewMech.org, we are committed to accuracy, clarity, and integrity in all the content we publish. While we strive for the highest editorial standards, occasional errors or omissions can occur. Our Corrections Policy ensures transparency in how we address such issues to maintain the trust of our readers and the broader scientific and academic community.
1. Our Commitment to Accuracy
Our editorial team conducts thorough fact-checking and source verification prior to publishing. However, if any material error is identified post-publication, we will:
- Promptly investigate the issue
- Correct the error transparently
- Update the article with a correction notice where appropriate
We believe that being open about our mistakes is a critical part of responsible science and engineering communication.
2. Types of Corrections
We categorize corrections into the following types:
a) Minor Corrections
These include spelling mistakes, grammar issues, or typographical errors that do not affect the overall meaning or accuracy of the content.
- Action: These are corrected without a formal notice but may be logged internally for review.
b) Factual Corrections
These involve incorrect data, statistics, misidentified individuals, misattributed quotes, or other substantive inaccuracies.
- Action: The content is updated, and a correction notice is added at the bottom of the article stating what was changed and why.
c) Clarifications
When an article is technically accurate but potentially misleading or ambiguous, we revise the wording to improve clarity.
- Action: A clarification note is added to explain the update.
d) Retractions
In rare cases where a post is fundamentally flawed or based on discredited information, we may retract it entirely.
- Action: The article is removed, and a retraction statement is posted in its place, explaining the reasons for the retraction.
3. How to Request a Correction
If you spot an error in one of our articles, we encourage you to report it.
Please include:
- The article title and URL
- A brief description of the issue
- Supporting information or evidence, if possible
You can email us directly at:

cm.discoverseo@gmail.com
We review all correction requests seriously and aim to respond within 3–5 business days.
4. Accountability and Editorial Review
All corrections are reviewed by a senior editor and, when necessary, by subject matter experts. We log all substantive corrections and update our editorial team on recurring issues to improve future accuracy.
5. Archived and Dated Content
In some cases, we publish archived content for historical, educational, or archival purposes. These pieces are clearly dated and may not reflect the most recent developments. If such content requires correction, a note will be added indicating its archival status and any necessary updates.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Corrections Policy from time to time to reflect evolving editorial standards and practices.
