Publication standards
Editorial Policy
Post-Social publishes original essays, frameworks, investigations and independent reviews. This policy explains how the work is prepared and maintained.
Editorial independence
Editorial conclusions are determined by Post-Social. Commercial relationships, product access or correspondence with a company do not purchase favourable coverage or editorial control.
Sources and evidence
Factual claims should be supported by direct observation, primary documentation or reliable published sources. Analysis and interpretation are identified through context and should not be presented as established fact.
Original frameworks
Post-Social develops original concepts including Memory Continuity and SMAK. Definitions published on the canonical Post-Social page are treated as the authoritative version and may be refined transparently as the work develops.
Artificial intelligence
AI may assist with research organisation, drafting support, grammar, code and production. It does not replace editorial judgement. Important factual claims, quotations and conclusions must be checked against accessible evidence before publication.
Updates and corrections
Substantive updates receive an updated date. Errors are corrected promptly and material corrections are handled under the Corrections Policy. Routine formatting or technical changes do not reset the original publication date.
