Editorial policy

Sources come first

We write from sources, not from memory. Before an article is drafted we gather the documents it will rely on, and we prefer primary and official ones: government agencies, international organizations, peer-reviewed journals, museums, universities and company filings.

We do not use Wikipedia, personal blogs or unsourced pages as evidence. When good sources disagree, we say so in the article instead of picking one quietly.

Every sentence that states a fact ends with a numbered citation, and the full list of sources is at the bottom of each article with the date we read them.

How we use AI

• Drafting. Articles and video scripts are drafted by an AI system that is instructed to use only the collected sources.
• Narration. Video narration is produced with text-to-speech.
• Photographs. Real people, places and objects are shown only in public-domain or CC0 photographs, credited under the image with a link to the original. We never use AI to depict a real person or place.
• Illustrations. Other photo-like images are generated by AI on our own hardware and are always labeled “AI-generated illustration”. They set the scene; they are never presented as evidence or as photographs of real events.
• Maps and charts. These are not generated by an image model. They are drawn by our own software directly from the numbers and coordinates in the cited sources.

Checks before publishing

• For every source we store the exact passages an article relies on, and a program confirms that those passages appear on the original page.
• Numbers, dates and names in the article must appear in those stored passages.
• Before publication, a separate AI review re-reads each article against its stored source passages, sentence by sentence, with particular attention to numbers, dates, names and claims about people or companies. Anything the sources do not support is corrected or removed.
• Articles are not individually reviewed by a human editor. Reports from readers are checked by our team, and confirmed errors are corrected on the page.

Corrections

If you find a mistake, email contact@bodalive.com with the page address and, if you can, a source. When we correct an error of fact, we update the article and add a dated note under “Corrections” on that page. The “Updated” date near the title shows when an article last changed.

What we do not publish

• Medical, legal or investment advice. Articles about the body, law or money explain how things work; they are not guidance for personal decisions.
• Paid articles. Nobody can pay to be covered or to change what an article says.
• Images, video clips or artwork belonging to others without permission or a license that allows it.

Funding

BodaWiki is free to read. We plan to fund it with advertising. Advertisements will be clearly separated from articles, and advertisers will have no say in what we publish.
