Editorial Principles
We maintain full transparency across our sourcing, verification, and correction processes.
How we publish
We clearly separate content from advertising, historical facts from folklore, and institutional statements from editorial assessments.Türkiye Earth, when reporting on developments in Türkiye, follows a single core rule: whatever appears on the page is backed by transparent sourcing.
Sourcing
- Primary sources are fundamental in our news coverage—whether a municipality, institution, organizer, or official channel—and the source name is clearly stated on the page.
- Historical articles feature a visible bibliography and a final review note.
- Folklore and myths are explicitly labeled as such, kept distinct from historical claims.
- Numerical facts such as dates, prices, event statuses, and statistics are never published without attribution.
Verification
- Event listings include status updates (scheduled, postponed, canceled), a verification note, and an official ticket link where available; expired events are marked as concluded.
- Venue records maintain exact locations, addresses, and operating hours alongside the time of the last verification.
Corrections
When a factual error is identified, the content is updated, and significant changes are explained with a correction note. A page’s modification date is advanced only when a genuine update occurs. To report an error:info@iscik.com.
Artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence is utilized in three specific steps: drafting, content type classification, and translation. Its true value lies in simultaneous publishing across 10 languages and the systematic scanning of source records at a speed unattainable by a human team alone. Final decisions rest entirely with humans—numerical facts undergo separate checks, images are never published without verifying source rights, and no content goes live without passing through the publication gate’s controls. In history and folklore content, model generation relies strictly on a visible bibliography.
Sponsored content and advertising
Sponsored content is explicitly labeled, kept separate from editorial content, and never influences editorial rankings. No fees are accepted in exchange for news coverage or venue listings, and partnerships are fully disclosed on the page. Advertisements operate exclusively subject to your cookie consent (see theCookie Policy).
Visuals and rights
Every image features its source and attribution directly beneath it. If an image belongs to you, a clearremoval procedureis in place; upon receiving a request, the image is promptly removed from publication and its address permanently blocked.
Independence
Statements from institutions and organizers are reported strictly as statements; evaluations remain strictly editorial and are labeled as such. To learn more about who we are, visit ourAbout Uspage.
