What happens next

• We read every request.
• If a claim, number or source is wrong, we correct it and add a dated entry to the page’s living log saying what changed.
• Earlier log entries stay as written. We do not rewrite history.
• If a conclusion changes, the page’s version number changes too.

Right of reply

Authors, trialists and sponsors whose work is named in a synthesis have a right of reply. We link each reply from the claim it concerns. We may decline a reply that is abusive or off topic, and we say so on the page.

Shared authorship or funding is shown as a dependency between studies, never as an accusation.
