Editorial Standards and Publishing Policy
BadmintonPlanet.com aims to publish accurate, useful and clearly presented coverage of badminton. These standards describe the principles we use when preparing news, tournament reports, interviews, features and analysis.
Accuracy and Verification
We make reasonable efforts to check important details, including player names, nationalities, tournament dates, match results and scores. Where available, we give priority to primary sources such as official tournament results, the Badminton World Federation (BWF), national badminton associations and direct statements from players or their representatives.
When a detail is uncertain or cannot be independently confirmed, we aim to make that clear rather than present it as established fact.
Sources and Attribution
Our reporting may draw on official announcements, interviews, tournament information and other credible publications. When an article relies on information reported elsewhere, we aim to identify the source and link to it where appropriate. We do not knowingly present another publisher’s original reporting as our own.
Originality and Editorial Independence
We prepare articles for BadmintonPlanet readers with an emphasis on clear writing and relevant context. Advertising, sponsorships and commercial relationships should be kept distinct from editorial decisions. Sponsored or promotional material should be identified as such.
Match Reporting and Quotations
We take particular care with match winners, game scores, tournament rounds and event categories. We do not knowingly invent results, statistics or quotations.
When statements are translated from another language, the translation should preserve the speaker’s intended meaning. A translated quotation should not be presented as an independently recorded English-language statement.
Corrections and Updates
If you believe an article contains a factual error, contact us with the article link and the relevant details. We review correction requests and update an article when a correction is warranted. For significant corrections, we aim to explain the change to readers.
Articles may be updated when reliable new information becomes available. Updates should not mislead readers about when a story was originally reported. Send correction requests through our Contact page.
News, Analysis and Opinion
News reports focus on developments and factual information. Analysis and features may provide context or interpretation. Opinion, when published, should be distinguishable from straight news reporting.
Photographs and Other Media
We respect the rights of photographers, videographers, organizations and other content creators. Where appropriate, we include credits, attribution or links. Rights holders who have a concern about material on the site may contact us with the relevant page URL and supporting details.
Artificial Intelligence and Publishing Tools
Digital tools, including artificial intelligence tools, may assist parts of our publishing process, such as research, translation or drafting. They are not treated as authoritative sources. BadmintonPlanet remains responsible for the content published under its name, and factual details should be checked against reliable sources before publication.
Editorial Responsibility
BadmintonPlanet.com is independently operated by its founder and publisher, Vincent Liew. We welcome reader feedback and review concerns about content published on the site.
