Corrections Policy

Last Updated: 08/23/2026

We try to get things right. Sometimes we don’t. Technology coverage is full of specific details, like prices, specs, model names, and release dates, and some of them will occasionally be wrong or go out of date.

When we find a mistake, or a reader points one out, we look into it and fix the article where it needs fixing. That applies to everything we publish, from Tech News and Guides to deals and product coverage. This page explains what we correct, how to report a problem, and what happens next.

What We Correct

We want to hear about anything in an article that’s wrong or likely to mislead, including:

• Incorrect facts
• Incorrect product specifications
• Wrong prices
• Outdated deal information
• Incorrect availability
• Misleading statements
• Incorrect dates
• Broken or incorrect links
• Missing context that changes the meaning of something
• Any other information that could mislead a reader

Technology information also changes quickly. Prices, stock, software features, specifications, retailer policies, and availability can all shift after an article is published. Not every change means the article was wrong in the first place. We explain how we handle that below.

How to Report an Error

The easiest way is to contact WireDale. It helps if you include:

• The link to the article
• What looks wrong
• What you think the correct information is
• A source, if you have one

You don’t need all of that. A link and a short note is enough to get us looking.

What Happens After a Report

1. We review what you’ve flagged.
2. If the information is wrong, we correct or update the article.
3. If it was accurate when published but has since changed, we may update the article with the newer information.
4. If we can’t confirm there’s an error, we may leave the article as it is.

We can’t promise a specific response time, and not every report will lead to a change. But reader reports are one of the most useful ways we catch problems, and we take them seriously.

Corrections vs. Editorial Disagreements

A factual error and a difference of opinion aren’t the same thing.

If you think we picked the wrong laptop as our top recommendation, or ranked two phones in the wrong order, that’s a disagreement about editorial judgment. We’re still glad to hear it, and a good argument can change how we think about a product. But it doesn’t automatically mean the article contains an error.

If an article says a laptop has a feature it doesn’t have, lists the wrong battery capacity, or gets a price wrong, that’s a factual problem. That’s exactly the kind of thing we want to review.

How Corrections Are Made

Depending on the problem, we may:

• Correct the incorrect statement
• Update outdated information
• Replace an incorrect specification
• Update a deal when its price or availability has changed
• Fix broken or incorrect links
• Add context where an earlier statement was misleading

How a correction is handled depends on what was wrong and how much it affected the article.

Updating Older Articles

Some articles go out of date without ever being wrong. That can happen when:

• A product is discontinued
• A newer model replaces it
• A price changes
• A deal expires
• A software feature changes
• A manufacturer changes the specifications
• A retailer changes availability
• A product gets new software support, or loses it

None of this means the original article was wrong when it was published. It does mean the article may be less useful now. We may update older articles when a change is important enough to affect what a reader should take from them. Our Editorial Policy explains how we approach updates more generally.

Corrections and Deals

Deal information changes faster than almost anything else we publish. Prices change, coupons expire, stock disappears, retailer terms change, and promotions end early. A deal ending after we publish it isn’t an editorial error, which is why we always suggest checking the price at checkout before you buy.

Publishing the wrong price, the wrong discount, the wrong product, or a misleading detail about a deal is different. If that happens, we’ll review it and correct it where appropriate. Our Deal Methodology explains how we evaluate deals in the first place.

Product Information

Product details change too: specifications, software support, features, compatibility, availability, and pricing.

If we’ve published incorrect product information, we want to correct it once we know about it. That applies to reviews, buying guides, comparisons, and recommendation lists alike.

We don’t personally test every product we cover, so much of our product information comes from research. Our Review Methodology explains how we handle hands-on and research-based coverage.

Transparency

We’d rather fix a mistake than leave wrong information online just because it was already published. If something we wrote is wrong, we want to know.

Policy Updates

We may update this policy as WireDale grows and our processes develop. When we do, we’ll change the date at the top of this page.
