Editorial accountability
Our editorial standards
Useful content needs a clear audience, original judgment, reliable sources and a person who accepts responsibility for the final result. This page documents that process for every VanThunder guide.
Researched and structured with AI assistance; professionally reviewed and editorially revised by Marvin Schubert, then verified against the linked primary sources.
01 · Purpose
Every article begins with a real client or reader question. We do not create pages merely to occupy a keyword.
02 · Research
Official documentation, standards and first-party sources take priority. Commercial sources are labelled and used only when they add necessary context.
03 · Practice
VanThunder project experience is separated from sourced facts. Examples explain a decision, limitation or observed result instead of pretending to be universal proof.
04 · Review
Marvin Schubert checks technical accuracy, tone, claims, links and whether the article answers the stated question before publication.
05 · Transparency
Author, reviewer, publication date, substantive update date, source status and AI assistance are shown on the article.
06 · Maintenance
Dates change only after a meaningful editorial update. Corrections and substantial additions are recorded in the revision note.
How AI is used
AI may help compare source material, structure notes, propose wording and create clearly labelled illustrations. It does not replace source verification, project evidence or human accountability. We do not publish large volumes of lightly reviewed pages.
Images, motion and evidence
Media is stored and served locally. Screenshots and metrics include a source and data date. AI-assisted illustrations are labelled as such. Alternative text describes the information an image contributes; purely decorative media receives an empty alt attribute.
Corrections
If a factual error, outdated link or unclear disclosure is reported, we review it and update the article when justified. Material changes receive a new modified date and revision note.
