Corrections policy

Accuracy matters after publication, too

Intro Indianapolis corrects material errors directly, explains substantive changes, and applies the same standard to original guides, source-linked headlines, automated systems, and sponsored coverage.

Our process

What happens when something is wrong

01

Review the claim

We compare the published wording with the original source, available primary records, and any later update that changes the facts.

02

Fix the page

We correct the inaccurate wording, link, date, attribution, classification, or recommendation where it appears.

03

Explain material changes

When the correction changes a reader's understanding, we add a visible note describing what changed and why.

04

Keep a public record

Material correction notices are listed on this page so the update remains easy to find after the article changes.

Material corrections

Changes that deserve a visible note

A correction note is appropriate when a change affects the central facts, identity of a person or organization, location, date, source attribution, safety guidance, business recommendation, sponsorship disclosure, or the conclusion a reasonable reader would take from the page.

The note should state what was inaccurate and what replaced it. We do not erase a material mistake by silently rewriting the sentence.

Routine updates

Small fixes do not always require a correction notice

Spelling, punctuation, formatting, broken links, and clarity edits may be corrected without a formal note when they do not change the meaning.

Time-sensitive pages may also receive new hours, dates, prices, weather information, or event details. The updated date should help readers judge freshness when those changes are substantial.

Linked newsroom reports

We correct our presentation of outside reporting

When a source newsroom updates its reporting, we may update our summary or remove an item. We are responsible for our attribution, wording, desk label, and link; the source newsroom remains responsible for its full report.

AI and automation

System-assisted errors receive the same treatment

If automation misclassifies a headline, damages a source summary, invents a detail, or contributes to misleading wording, we correct the published work. The tool used does not reduce the publication's responsibility.

Sponsored coverage

Funding does not change the correction standard

Claims involving Raptor Roofing or any future sponsor are reviewed and corrected under the same rules. A commercial relationship must be disclosed; it does not make a factual claim exempt from scrutiny.

Reader contact

We publish contact details only when they can be monitored reliably

No public corrections inbox or submission form is currently listed. When a verified reader contact channel is available, it will appear on this page. We would rather state that plainly than direct readers to an unattended address.

Corrections record

Material correction notices

No material correction notices are currently published.

Future notices will identify the affected page, the corrected information, and the substance of the change.
