Editorial Principles
We maintain full transparency in our sourcing, verification, and correction processes.
How do we publish?
We clearly separate content from advertising, historical facts from legends, and institutional statements from editorial evaluations.Muğla Directory, when reporting on what is happening in Muğla, adheres to a single rule: whatever is written on the page, its source is also stated.
Sourcing
- Primary sources are essential in news—whether a municipality, institution, organizer, or official channel—and the name of the source is explicitly stated on the page.
- Historical articles feature a visible bibliography and a final review note.
- Legends and folklore are labeled as such, kept distinct from historical claims.
- Numerical facts such as dates, prices, event statuses, and statistics are never produced without a source.
Verification
- Event records carry a status (scheduled, postponed, cancelled), a verification note, and an official ticket link if available; past events are marked as ended.
- Venue records maintain location, address, and operating hours along with the timestamp of the last check.
Corrections
When a material error is detected, the content is updated; significant changes are explained with a correction note. A page’s update date only advances when an actual change occurs. To report an error:info@iscik.com.
Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence is used in three steps: drafting, content type classification, and translation. Its value lies in simultaneous publishing in 10 languages and the meticulous scanning of source records at a speed impossible for a human team alone. The final decision rests with humans—numerical facts go through a separate verification gate, visuals are never published without verifying source rights, and no content goes live without passing through the publication gate controls. In historical and legendary content, model generation relies solely on visible bibliographies.
Sponsored Content and Advertising
Sponsored content is explicitly labeled, kept separate from editorial content, and does not influence editorial rankings. No fees are charged for news or venue listings; collaborations are clearly indicated on the page. Advertisements operate solely with your cookie consent (seeCookie Policy).
Visuals and Rights
The source and credits of every image are stated beneath it. For any visual belonging to you, theremoval procedureis open; upon request, the visual is removed from publication and its address is permanently blocked.
Independence
Statements from institutions and organizers are conveyed as statements; evaluations are editorial and are marked as such. Who we are can be found on theAbout Uspage.
