Corrections
When something here is wrong, it gets fixed and it gets recorded. This page is that record.
How to report an error
Email vera@growthpedia.org with the URL and what is wrong. If you have a source, include it — it makes the fix faster, and the source usually ends up cited in the entry.
I would rather hear about a small imprecision than have it sit there. Being told I am wrong about a definition is the cheapest possible way to improve a reference site.
What gets logged here
- Factual corrections — a claim was wrong, and this says what it said before, what it says now, and when it changed.
- Source corrections — a citation was dead, wrong, or did not support the claim it was attached to.
- Substantive rewrites — an entry was materially wrong in its framing, not just its wording.
Not logged: typos, formatting, adding a link, or expanding an entry that was already accurate. Every entry shows its own last-edited date, and the recently-updated page lists all of them in edit order.
The log
The standing correction
One thing is worth stating before anyone has to report it: SEO writing decays. Thresholds shift, tools get renamed, features are retired, and Google changes behaviour without announcing it. An entry can be accurate on the day it is written and wrong eighteen months later with nobody having made a mistake. Where a topic is known to move, the entry says so — but if you find something stale, that is still worth an email.
