Webverbal Editorial Policy
Webverbal Editorial Policy & Accuracy Framework
Introduction:
At Webverbal, our mission is to build credible, insight-driven narratives that help entrepreneurs, investors, and readers understand Bharat’s digital economy with depth and clarity.
This Editorial Policy outlines the framework, fact-check methods, and ethical standards that guide every piece published under our Bharat Intelligence Series and other editorial categories.
1. Independence and Mission
Webverbal operates as an independent research and analysis publication.
Our editorial team functions without external influence from advertisers, affiliates, or sponsors.
We are driven by our mission to empower Bharat’s entrepreneurs with accurate, contextual, and actionable information.
2. Source Verification
Every report is based on a combination of:
- Primary data (interviews, founder statements, field observations).
- Secondary data (industry databases, government and regulatory reports).
- Publicly available financial and policy documents.
All claims are cross-verified by at least two independent or official sources before publication.
3. Fact-Check Methodology
Each article undergoes a three-layer verification system:
- Research validation: Checking numerical and factual data against source documents.
- Contextual verification: Ensuring analysis aligns with regional and sector-specific realities.
- Final review: Author and editor jointly validate accuracy and neutrality.
For investigative or analytical content, we maintain complete citation trails for internal records.
4. Corrections & Updates
If factual errors are discovered post-publication:
- A correction notice is appended at the end of the article.
- The timestamp of modification is updated.
- Major factual corrections are logged transparently on the Fact-Check & Accuracy Policy page.
To request a correction, email: hello@webverbal.com.
5. AI-Generated Content & Human Oversight
Webverbal may use AI-assisted tools for drafting and structuring insights, but every published piece is human-reviewed and fact-verified by the editorial team.
AI tools are treated as research aids — never as final authors.
6. Transparency and Conflicts of Interest
Our contributors disclose any financial, business, or investment interests related to topics they cover.
If a potential conflict exists, it is explicitly mentioned in the article.
7. Editorial Review Frequency
All cornerstone reports — including the Bharat Intelligence Series — are re-evaluated every six months to ensure data relevance.
Archived content is labeled clearly and kept accessible for historical reference.
8. Attribution & Citations
We credit all third-party data sources, visuals, and contributors.
Citation format follows the “source-first” approach for transparency:
Example: NASSCOM (2024), AI in Rural Innovation Report.
9. Contact & Accountability
Editorial inquiries and correction requests can be sent to:
hello@webverbal.com
All communication is reviewed directly by Debansh Das Sharma, Founder & Chief Editor.
