Editorial policy

Stellar Policy Journal aims to explain policy clearly and fairly. We make the basis and limits of each piece visible, and correct the record when a material error is found.

Accuracy and context

We check names of concepts, descriptions of processes and claims against material appropriate to the subject. We distinguish established details from interpretation, note uncertainty where it matters, and avoid presenting an illustrative example as evidence of a general result.

Independence

Editorial decisions are made for clarity and relevance to the publication's subject. A contributor or partner does not receive control over unrelated editorial coverage. We do not present promotional claims as independent explanation.

Corrections

Readers can report an error through the Contact page. When a substantive correction is warranted, we amend the affected wording and make the change clear to readers; minor edits for spelling or clarity may be made without a separate notice.

Partner material and illustrations

Paid, supplied or otherwise partner-supported material is labelled so readers can distinguish it from editorial work. Some illustrations may be AI-generated; where an illustration is AI-generated, that fact is identified with the image.
