Fapeza is an independent UK editorial platform. These standards explain how we select topics, research claims, identify authors, handle commercial relationships and correct material. They apply to the publication’s guides, explainers, category hubs and policy pages.
Reader need and editorial scope
Every useful article should begin with a defined reader question. Editors identify the intended audience, the outcome the page should support and the boundaries of the answer. A clear scope reduces filler and prevents a general article from presenting itself as personalised professional advice.
We commission material that fits the Fapeza topic structure and can provide genuine value. We avoid misleading headlines, near-duplicate brand pages and content created only to attract search traffic. Older content may be revised, reclassified or removed from prominent navigation when it no longer meets the standard.
Research and sources
Sources are selected according to the claim. UK government departments, regulators, legislation, recognised institutions, original research, company filings and product documentation are preferred where they directly verify a fact. A company’s own page can confirm its features or terms but is not independent evidence that it is the best choice.
Secondary sources may add explanation or context. Editors consider the publisher, author expertise, evidence, date and whether independent sources support the same conclusion. Anonymous commercial summaries and copied pages receive less weight, particularly for health, finance, law or safety.
Writing, editing and author accountability
Articles should use clear British English, descriptive headings and meaningful links. Editors check that the title matches the content, factual claims have suitable support, opinion is distinguishable from evidence and limitations are visible. We do not manufacture first-hand experience or qualifications.
Material is attributed to a contributor or the Fapeza Editorial Team. Team bylines may be used for collaborative guides, policy pages and substantial updates. Author biographies identify editorial focus and relevant experience without inventing credentials.
Sensitive and changing information
Health, legal, financial, tax and safety topics require additional care. General editorial information cannot account for an individual’s circumstances. These pages should use appropriate official sources and direct personal decisions to a qualified professional or current public service.
Prices, schedules, laws, software features, entry requirements and public guidance can change quickly. An article should identify time-sensitive details and encourage a check with the operational source. We do not change a date merely to make an untouched page appear fresh.
Commercial transparency
Sponsored, affiliate or contributed material must be disclosed. Payment does not determine a factual conclusion, guarantee positive coverage or allow a commercial claim to replace independent evidence. Paid links should carry appropriate sponsored attributes.
Fapeza does not knowingly publish deceptive, adult, illicit, gambling or unsafe promotional material. We do not sell guaranteed rankings. Partnership proposals remain subject to editorial review, and unsuitable material can be declined or removed.
Internal and external links
Internal links are chosen because they offer a sensible next read. Descriptive anchor text should explain the destination. Links to official and primary sources help readers verify important facts. A link to an external website does not endorse everything published there, and external pages may change without notice.
Updates and corrections
Publication is not the end of editorial responsibility. Important guides may be updated when evidence, official guidance, services or practical details change. A material correction can include changed wording, an updated source, clearer context or a revised conclusion.
Readers can use the Fapeza contact form to send the full URL, specific statement and a supporting source. We assess evidence-based requests and review related pages when the same issue may appear elsewhere. Minor spelling or formatting fixes may be made without a formal note; significant corrections may be explained in the article.
Artificial intelligence and editorial responsibility
Digital tools may assist with research organisation, transcription, drafting or quality checks, but they do not remove editorial responsibility. Any material prepared with automated assistance should still be checked for accuracy, originality, context, bias and appropriate sourcing before publication. Private or sensitive reader information should not be placed into an unsuitable external tool.
Feedback and complaints
Specific feedback helps the team act. Explain the concern, identify the page and share evidence where available. Commercial pressure, abusive messages or demands to remove accurate public-interest context will not determine an editorial conclusion.
