Editorial Standards
Last Updated: September 3, 2026 · Accountable author: William Vasquez
The Short Version
Wrong detail, right article: we correct it in place at the same URL and note what changed. Wrong premise: we rewrite the article at the same URL. Either way the post's modified date moves, because it reflects a real edit — we never bump it to fake freshness. Report an error via the contact form.
Table of Contents
Our blog posts are AI-drafted and published without a human editor reading them first — that is set out in full in our editorial policy, and the checks that do run before publish are listed on our fact-checking page. Those checks catch broken links, invented internal pages, duplicated headlines, and stray markup. They cannot catch a wrong number.
So errors will occur. What matters is what happens next, and this page is the commitment: every post carries a named attorney's byline, and errors reported against that byline get fixed and recorded. Nothing here is quietly rewritten to look as though it was always right.
We correct anything that makes an article wrong or misleading. In practice that means:
Factual errors — a misstated figure, date, name, jurisdiction, holding, or dollar amount. Misattributed or misquoted statements. Citations pointing at the wrong source, or at a page that has moved or gone. Figures that were accurate when published but have since been superseded. Errors introduced in translation, where the Spanish edition says something the English edition does not.
We also fix typographical and formatting problems, but those are not corrections in the sense this page means — we make them silently and do not log them. A correction, here, means a change to what the article asserts.
There are three outcomes, and which one applies depends on how much of the article the error touches.
The default. A discrete claim is wrong; the rest of the article stands. We edit the sentence, note the correction at the foot of the post with the date and what changed, and the URL stays the same. The post's last-modified timestamp moves. Any inbound link you have to that article keeps working and now points at the corrected text.
Used when the premise is wrong rather than a detail, or when the topic has moved so far that patching sentences would leave a misleading whole. The article is regenerated at the same slug against current sources, and the fact that it was rewritten is noted on the post. We keep the URL because that is where the readers and the inbound links are; replacing a stale article is more honest than leaving it up beside a near-duplicate successor.
We also run this path proactively rather than only on complaint: posts flagged for automatic maintenance are re-checked on a rolling monthly cycle, with the specific update type recorded per post — a year or figure refresh for some, a broader rewrite for others.
Reserved for an article that cannot be made accurate, or that should never have been published. Because removal breaks inbound links and search results, we prefer correction or rewrite in almost every case. Where we do remove a post, we point the URL at the closest genuinely relevant page rather than leaving readers at a dead end.
Each post publishes structured data carrying a `datePublished` and a `dateModified`. Our `dateModified` is read from the post's stored last-updated timestamp in our database, which changes when the record changes — so it reflects a real edit to the article.
We do not touch that timestamp to make old articles look fresh. Bumping modified dates without editing the content is a common trick and a bad one: it lies to readers about how current the information is, and it is the kind of signal search engines are increasingly good at discounting. If the modified date on one of our posts is newer than the published date, something in the article actually changed.
The corollary is worth stating too: a post whose modified date equals its published date has not been revised since it went live, and should be read with its original date in mind.
Use our contact form, or email info@hodos360.ai. Please include:
The URL of the article. The exact sentence, figure, or quotation you are disputing. What the correct information is. A source, if you have one — a primary document, a court record, a company filing, or a first-hand account all help.
If you are the person or organisation an article names or quotes and it has us wrong, say so explicitly. Those go to the front of the queue.
Every report is read by a person. We check the claim against the primary source, decide which of the three outcomes above applies, and make the change.
We are not going to invent a service-level agreement we cannot hold to across three posts a day. What we will commit to is this: reports that concern a factual claim are acted on as soon as the claim is verified, reports from a named or quoted party are prioritised, and we reply to tell you what we did — including when we concluded the article was right and are leaving it alone.
Corrections are decided by William Vasquez, the named author on every post: a practising attorney admitted to the North Carolina State Bar since 2011, admitted to the U.S. Courts of Appeals for the Fourth, Fifth, and Eleventh Circuits, and a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, with 3,000+ matters handled personally across immigration, personal injury, criminal defence, family law, and workers' compensation. His profile is at /about/william-vasquez.
Corrections that change what an article asserts are recorded here, with the date, the affected URL, and a plain description of what changed — as well as at the foot of the post itself.
No corrections have been recorded since this page was published on September 3, 2026. That is a statement about the log, not a claim that every one of our several hundred articles is flawless. It means no reader has reported a substantive error to us and had it upheld since we started keeping this record. If you find one, the section above tells you how to get it in here.
Our articles discuss law and legal technology in general terms. Nothing on this blog is legal advice, and reading it — corrected or otherwise — creates no attorney-client relationship with William Vasquez, Vasquez Law Firm, PLLC, or Hodos360. Before acting on anything you read here, consult a lawyer licensed in your jurisdiction.
This page is updated when our correction practice changes, and the "Last Updated" date above changes with it.
URL, the disputed sentence, and the correct information. A person reads every one.
