Corrections

Found a discrepancy?

Tell us precisely what's wrong and we will check it. If you're right, we'll fix it and say so in the open.

This is not a formality. Our reference study exists partly because someone caught an annual inflation rate being read as a monthly one — an error that overstated a real problem by more than tenfold. A number that exaggerates a genuine crisis doesn't help the people it describes; it hands ammunition to anyone who wants to dismiss them.

So: the same standard applies to us. Be specific, cite something, and we'll do the work.

The more precisely you point, the faster we can check it.
Presentation — typo, broken link, unclear wording. Sourcing — citation is wrong, missing, or misread. Substantive — the number, the method, or the conclusion is wrong.
Quote or paraphrase the specific thing you think is wrong.
What should it say instead, and why?

Thank you — that's now in the queue. Every correction gets read by the seat responsible for that part of the study.

If it holds up, we'll amend the study and record it in the corrections log with the date and what changed. If it doesn't, and you left an email, we'll tell you why.
