EDITORIAL STANDARDS · FOUR STEPS

How a guide
gets checked.

What this page covers

The four
standards.

The four standards every guide on Editorialnortesur is held to before it goes out, and what you can do when one of them falls short. Nothing is sold or booked here, so the only thing these steps protect is the accuracy of what you read.

01

More than one source

No guide goes out on the strength of a single source. A detail that shapes your plans, such as where a trail starts, when a region is at its best or how long to wait before swimming, has to stand up somewhere other than the first place we read it.

Some things change too quickly for any guide to keep up with: live conditions, park alerts and bookings. For those, our guides send you to the official source rather than pretending to replace it. The Grampians Peaks Trail guide shows how that works in practice.

02

A name and a date

Every guide shows a byline, a publish date and a read time, so you know who wrote it, when, and how long it’ll take. Recent guides run to 15–17 minutes, because the practical details take room to explain.

Carys Lindley, an Adelaide-based travel and tourism writer, writes practical travel guides for the site. The site is edited by its founder and curator, Isaac Bramwell. Read more about both on the About page.

03

General information, said plainly

Each article carries a short note linking to our Terms of Use. Our guides are general information only, not personal advice, and we can’t guarantee the content is complete or up to date.

We’re not a travel agent, tour operator, cosmetic tattoo clinic or content marketing agency. A guide like Swimming After A New Tattoo In Australia can help you ask better questions. Your own artist or health professional still has the final say.

04

Spotted an error?

We invite corrections, and every guide says so with a ‘Spotted an error?’ link. A road that’s been realigned, a cellar door with new hours, an access point that’s moved: if you’ve seen something that doesn’t match what we wrote, it’s worth telling us. Corrections are how a guide stays useful after it’s published.

Before you write

Send us
a correction.

—  Name the guide, or paste its link.

—  Quote the line that’s wrong or out of date.

—  Tell us what you saw instead, and when.

—  Add a source if you have one, so we can check it too.

The form isn’t the right place for urgent safety matters, park closures or booking problems. Contact the relevant park authority, emergency service or operator directly. Have a general question instead? Start with Reader Questions or browse all guides.
