Source methodology

EndRelay is designed to advocate firmly without converting disputed claims into statements of established fact.

First-person accounts

Claims based on the author's or a submitter's own experience are labeled as allegations or reported experiences. A submission alone is not independent verification.

Independent sources

External reports should include a working source URL, publisher or author, publication date, and a faithful summary. Opinion and allegation remain labeled as such.

Evidence

Documents are reviewed for relevance, chronology, authenticity indicators, and private information before publication. Absence of published evidence is stated plainly.

Numbers

Counts and dollar figures require a defined source and method. Marketing figures are attributed to the company making them rather than presented as independently established.

Right of response

Named organizations and people should have a fair opportunity to respond. Responses and material corrections receive visible placement and dates.

Corrections

Material errors should be corrected promptly. The page should note what changed and when once real publication updates begin.

Publication standard

Placeholder material is not evidence. Unverified third-party links should remain unpublished until checked. No moderation outcome guarantees truth; it reflects an editorial review based on available material.
