Start with the platform

Identify the website, the services it describes and the organization it claims to represent. A published claim is a starting point, not independent verification.

Distinguish evidence from opinion

Findings should identify their sources and scope. Community experiences are separate from editorial research and should be understood in that context.

Make uncertainty visible

Missing information does not establish misconduct. Reviews should state what remains unknown and avoid conclusions that the available evidence cannot support.

Keep information in context

Website details can change. Readers should check original sources and the date of any observation before relying on a finding.
