Editorial Policy

Last Updated: 12 August 2026

Welcome to InfoWarFacts, an independent digital publishing platform covering military history, defence technology, strategic affairs, geopolitics, national security and related subjects.

This Editorial Policy explains the principles and practices that guide the research, preparation, publication and correction of content on InfoWarFacts.

Our objective is to provide readers with informative, well-researched and accessible content while maintaining editorial independence and clearly distinguishing factual information from analysis and opinion.


1. Our Editorial Mission

  • Battles and military operations
  • Defence technology

We aim to explain complex subjects in a clear and understandable manner while providing appropriate historical, technological and strategic context.


2. Editorial Independence

InfoWarFacts is an independent publication.

The website is not affiliated with, operated by, endorsed by or officially connected with any government, armed force, intelligence organisation, political organisation or defence manufacturer unless expressly stated otherwise.

Our editorial content is developed independently based on information available to us at the time of publication.

Advertising, sponsorships, affiliate relationships or other commercial arrangements, where applicable, do not necessarily determine or influence our editorial views.


3. Research and Sources

We make reasonable efforts to research our articles using credible and relevant sources.

Depending on the subject, sources may include:

  • Government publications
  • Official government websites
  • Ministry and defence publications
  • Official military statements
  • Parliamentary documents
  • Official reports
  • Academic research
  • Books and historical records
  • Research institutions
  • Reputable news organisations
  • Defence publications
  • Specialist publications
  • Publicly available databases
  • Archival material
  • Other credible publicly available sources

Where appropriate, articles may use multiple sources to compare information and reduce the possibility of relying on a single potentially incomplete account.

The availability and reliability of information can vary depending on the subject. We therefore do not represent every publicly available claim as established fact.


4. Use of Primary and Official Sources

Where reasonably available, we prefer to consult primary or authoritative sources for important factual claims.

These may include official government documents, military statements, parliamentary records, official reports, original research and historical documents.

However, primary sources can also contain limitations, omissions or competing interpretations. The existence of an official statement does not automatically mean that every aspect of the statement is independently verified.

Where appropriate, we may compare official information with other credible sources and provide the relevant context.


5. Fact-Checking and Verification

We make reasonable efforts to verify important factual information before publication.

Depending on the subject, this may involve:

  • Comparing information from multiple sources
  • Checking dates and locations
  • Comparing technical specifications
  • Reviewing historical records
  • Checking official statements
  • Examining publicly available research
  • Distinguishing confirmed information from reported information
  • Identifying estimates or disputed claims

We recognise that information relating to defence programmes, military capabilities, procurement, geopolitical developments and ongoing conflicts can change rapidly.

Consequently, information that was accurate when an article was published may subsequently become outdated or be revised.


6. Distinguishing Facts, Analysis and Opinion

We seek to distinguish between different types of information presented on InfoWarFacts.

Reported Facts

Information presented as a factual statement based on available evidence or an identified source.

Historical Information

Information relating to past events, military operations, battles, campaigns, people and organisations based on available historical records.

Analysis

Our interpretation of available information and its potential implications.

Opinion

An editorial viewpoint or assessment expressed by the author based on the information available at the time.

Readers should not interpret editorial analysis or opinion as an official government, military or intelligence assessment.


7. Historical Research

Military history is an important part of InfoWarFacts.

Historical events may be documented differently by different countries, military organisations, historians and participants.

Historical sources may therefore contain:

  • Conflicting accounts
  • Different casualty figures
  • Disputed claims
  • Different interpretations
  • Incomplete records
  • Conflicting dates
  • Different assessments of military decisions
  • Differing accounts of the same event

Where credible sources disagree, we may acknowledge the disagreement and, where appropriate, present the relevant interpretations.

The publication of a particular historical account does not necessarily mean that it is universally accepted.


8. Defence and Military Technology

InfoWarFacts regularly covers defence equipment and military technology.

Technical information may include specifications relating to aircraft, missiles, ships, submarines, drones, radar systems, air-defence systems, electronic warfare systems, weapons and other military technologies.

Such information is generally based on publicly available material.

Technical specifications may differ between sources because of:

  • Different testing conditions
  • Different configurations
  • Changes to a programme
  • Manufacturer claims
  • Government disclosures
  • Operational secrecy
  • Estimates by researchers or analysts
  • Differences in terminology

Where figures are uncertain or disputed, we may identify them as reported figures, estimates or publicly available assessments rather than presenting them as independently verified facts.


9. Current Affairs and Developing Events

Information relating to ongoing conflicts, military operations, defence programmes and geopolitical developments may change rapidly.

Articles concerning developing events may therefore be updated when significant new information becomes available.

Readers should consider the publication date and any subsequent updates when assessing information about rapidly developing events.

Where appropriate, we may identify information as:

  • Confirmed
  • Reported
  • Expected
  • Estimated
  • Under development
  • Subject to change

10. Analysis and Interpretation

Some InfoWarFacts articles contain editorial analysis.

Analysis may examine issues such as:

  • Military capabilities
  • Strategic choices
  • Operational developments
  • Defence procurement
  • Technology
  • Geography
  • Military doctrine
  • Historical lessons
  • Regional security
  • Geopolitical developments

Such analysis represents an editorial interpretation of publicly available information.

It should not be considered an official government assessment, military assessment, intelligence assessment or professional strategic advice.


11. Artificial Intelligence and Editorial Assistance

InfoWarFacts may use digital tools, including artificial intelligence tools, as part of certain stages of the editorial process.

Such tools may be used for purposes such as:

  • Research assistance
  • Organising information
  • Identifying relevant topics
  • Language improvement
  • Drafting assistance
  • Summarisation
  • Editing assistance
  • Brainstorming
  • Content organisation

AI-generated or AI-assisted material is not automatically treated as verified information.

Where AI tools are used, appropriate human editorial review remains important, particularly for factual claims, historical information, technical specifications, dates, names and other potentially sensitive information.

We do not intentionally present AI-generated material as an authoritative source merely because it has been generated by an AI system.


12. Corrections and Updates

We believe that correcting significant factual errors is an important part of responsible publishing.

If we identify a material error in an article, we may:

  • Correct the information
  • Update the article
  • Add clarification
  • Amend an outdated statement
  • Remove inaccurate information
  • Add additional context where appropriate

Where a correction materially changes the substance of an article, we may indicate that the article has been updated.

Readers who identify a potential factual error are encouraged to contact us and provide supporting information.


13. Reader Corrections and Feedback

We welcome constructive feedback from readers, researchers, historians, defence professionals and other knowledgeable individuals.

A correction request should, where possible, include:

  • The relevant article
  • The specific statement concerned
  • An explanation of the issue
  • A reliable supporting source
  • Any additional relevant information

We review correction requests based on the reliability and relevance of the information provided.

Submission of a correction request does not guarantee that an article will be changed.

Editorial decisions remain with InfoWarFacts.


14. Images and Third-Party Material

InfoWarFacts may use photographs, maps, illustrations, graphics, logos, quotations and other material obtained from third-party sources where appropriate.

Third-party material remains subject to the rights of its respective owners.

We seek to respect applicable copyright and intellectual-property requirements and provide attribution or source information where appropriate.

If you believe that material published on InfoWarFacts infringes your copyright or other rights, please contact us with relevant details so that the matter can be reviewed.


15. Classified and Confidential Information

InfoWarFacts does not request or encourage readers to submit classified, confidential, restricted or otherwise non-public government or military information.

Readers should not submit classified, sensitive or confidential information through our Contact Us form, email or any other communication channel.

Our coverage is based primarily on information that is publicly available or otherwise lawfully obtained.


16. Conflicts of Interest

We seek to maintain editorial independence and avoid undisclosed conflicts of interest.

Where a material conflict of interest could affect the interpretation of an article or recommendation, appropriate disclosure may be provided.

Commercial relationships, advertising arrangements or affiliate relationships, where applicable, do not necessarily influence our editorial conclusions.


17. Advertising and Editorial Content

Advertisements may appear on InfoWarFacts through third-party advertising services.

Advertising is separate from editorial decision-making.

The appearance of an advertisement does not mean that InfoWarFacts endorses the advertised product, service, organisation or claim.

Advertisers and advertising platforms may independently determine which advertisements are displayed in accordance with their own systems and policies.


18. Editorial Responsibility

We make reasonable efforts to maintain the quality and accuracy of our published material.

However, no publication can guarantee that every article will always be:

  • Complete
  • Current
  • Error-free
  • Free from omissions
  • Accepted by every source or expert
  • Suitable for every purpose

Military, defence and geopolitical information can be particularly difficult to verify because important information may not be publicly available.

Readers should independently verify important information through authoritative sources where necessary.


19. What We Do Not Publish

InfoWarFacts does not intentionally seek to publish:

  • Classified military information
  • Confidential government information
  • Restricted operational information
  • Private personal information
  • Material obtained through unlawful means
  • Deliberately fabricated information

We may also decline to publish submissions that are unlawful, defamatory, abusive, misleading, malicious or otherwise inappropriate.
