Corrections
Independent journalism illuminating Mauritius' civic landscape
At Mauritius Civic Lens, we are committed to accuracy and transparency in our reporting. When errors are identified in our published content, we take immediate action to correct them and inform our readers.
How to Report an Error:
Readers who identify factual errors, inaccuracies, or misleading information in our articles are encouraged to contact our Corrections Desk directly. Reports can be submitted via email to [email protected] or through our online form at mauritiusciviclens.com/corrections. Please include the article title, publication date, specific error, and supporting documentation when available.
Review Process:
Upon receiving a correction request, our editorial team conducts a thorough review of the claim. We verify the information against our original sources and conduct additional fact-checking if necessary. This process typically takes 24-48 hours. We may contact the original reporter, sources, or subject of the article for clarification.
Publication of Corrections:
Once an error is confirmed, we publish a correction in a clearly marked section on the original article. Corrections are timestamped and explain what was changed and why. For significant errors affecting the article's central claims, we may revise the article substantially and note the revision prominently. We maintain a public corrections log at mauritiusciviclens.com/corrections-log for full transparency.
Standards:
We distinguish between factual errors, which are corrected immediately, and matters of interpretation or opinion, which we address through clarifications or editor's notes. We take responsibility for errors resulting from our reporting process and do not blame sources for inaccuracies we failed to verify.
