Corrections

We correct errors on raiseandrest rather than deleting content. When a substantive correction is made, a note is added at the foot of the article stating it was corrected and giving the date. This ensures transparency and maintains a record of the information. Minor typographical errors, formatting issues, or broken links are fixed without a correction note, as they do not alter the factual content or advice presented.

A substantive correction is one that changes a meaningful fact, figure, or piece of guidance. Examples include an incorrect developmental milestone age, an inaccurate safety recommendation, or a wrong administrative deadline. We distinguish this from minor clarifications or updates to style, which do not receive a formal note.

To report a suspected error, please provide the full article address and quote the exact claim you believe is incorrect. This allows us to locate and review the specific information efficiently. We aim to investigate all reported errors and make necessary corrections within five working days, and will confirm the outcome if contact details are supplied.

Some reference pages, such as those on safety standards or administrative procedures, contain facts that change due to new regulations or official programmes. When such a change occurs, we update the page substantively and add a correction note. This process ensures our Country guides and similar resources reflect the current situation for our audience in Asia.

Our approach is designed to maintain the reliability of raiseandrest as a reference for parents. The correction system allows the site to evolve and improve while being clear about its editorial changes.
