Buhii.net Fact-Checking Policy

Accuracy is the foundation of everything we publish. This policy explains how the Buhii.net editorial team checks facts before an article goes live, how we handle uncertain or disputed evidence, and what happens when we get something wrong. It works alongside our editorial policy, which covers how we choose topics, select sources and review content.

Our Fact-Checking Process

Every article on Buhii.net is reviewed by an editor before it is published. As part of that review, we check:

• Claims: Any factual statement a reader might rely on is traced back to a credible source. If we can’t verify it, we remove or rewrite it.
• Statistics and figures: Numbers are checked against the original source, including when the data was collected and what it actually measures. We don’t round, reframe or combine figures in ways that change their meaning.
• Quotes: Quotes are checked word for word against the original source and attributed accurately, with enough context to avoid misrepresenting the speaker.
• Dates, prices and rules: Time-sensitive details, such as deadlines, limits, prices, version numbers and policies, are checked against the most current official information available.
• Instructions: For how-to content, we confirm that steps are complete, in the right order and consistent with the current version of the product or service, and we work through them ourselves wherever practical.
• Links: Every source link is opened to confirm that it works and that it actually supports the statement it is attached to.

Our Source Hierarchy

Not all sources are equally reliable. When we verify information, we look for the most direct and authoritative source available, generally in this order:

1. Primary sources: official documentation, laws and regulations, government data, original research and statements from the organization the claim is about.
2. Authoritative institutions: government agencies, regulators, public-health bodies and universities.
3. Peer-reviewed research, with particular weight given to systematic reviews and established scientific consensus on health topics.
4. Reputable publishers with clear editorial standards and a visible corrections process.

We treat secondary reports as leads, not proof. Wherever possible, we trace a claim back to where it originated and link to that original source. Anonymous forum posts, unverified social media content and pages that don’t show where their information came from are never used as evidence.

Handling Uncertainty and Disputed Evidence

Some questions don’t have a single, settled answer. When evidence is limited, mixed or still developing, we:

• Say so clearly instead of presenting one view as certain
• Explain what the stronger evidence shows and where qualified experts disagree
• Avoid overstating the findings of a single small, early or preliminary study
• Give priority to guidance from official and public-health bodies on health topics
• Flag information that is likely to change, such as annual limits, interest rates or evolving product features

Health and money topics receive extra care. We remind readers that this content is general information, not professional advice, and we encourage them to speak with a qualified professional about their own situation.

Corrections Policy

We work hard to get things right, but mistakes can happen. When they do, we fix them quickly and openly.

How to Report an Error

If you spot something that looks incorrect, please let us know through our contact page or by emailing hello@buhiinet.com. To help us review your report quickly, include:

• The link to the article
• The specific statement you believe is wrong
• A source that supports the correction, if you have one

How We Review Reports

Every correction request is reviewed by the editorial team. We check the original statement against its source, review any evidence you’ve shared and look for the most authoritative current information on the subject. If we confirm an error, we correct it. If the original information turns out to be accurate, we leave it in place, although we may reword it if it was open to misunderstanding.

How Corrections Are Made and Noted

When we confirm an error:

• We correct the article promptly.
• For significant corrections, meaning those that change a fact, a figure, a recommendation or the overall meaning of the article, we add a short note explaining what was changed.
• We revise the article’s updated date so readers can see when it last changed.
• Minor fixes, such as typos, grammar or a broken link that doesn’t affect meaning, are made without a separate note.

Updates vs. Corrections

We treat these two types of changes differently:

• An update happens when the facts themselves change, for example a new rule, a new product version or newer data, or when we add helpful information. Updates are reflected in the article’s updated date.
• A correction happens when we fix something that was wrong at the time it was published. Significant corrections are noted in the article.

What We Don’t Do

To keep our content trustworthy, the Buhii.net editorial team never:

• Publishes statistics without a credible, linked source
• Fabricates, alters or invents quotes, sources or expert opinions
• Presents opinion or speculation as established fact
• Cites a source for a claim that the source doesn’t support
• Lets advertisers, affiliate partners or sponsors influence fact-checking or corrections
• Quietly changes the meaning of an article without noting a significant correction
• Publishes content drafted with the help of AI tools without human review and fact-checking
