EDITORIAL STANDARD 02 / METHOD

Trust the trail, not the tone.

A good briefing tells you what happened, what I checked and what is still an inference. The commercial recommendation must earn its place.

01 / SOURCE

Find the original.

Prefer primary announcements, documentation, reports or the work itself. Cite the document beside the claim. A summary from another publication is a lead, not the final proof.

02 / STATUS

Name the level of evidence.

Announced, planned, tested, deployed and rejected are different states. If no first-hand test exists, the article says so. If a number comes from a lab run, it stays attached to its URL, date and conditions.

03 / LIMIT

Show what it cannot prove.

A speed score is not field performance. A citation is not a sale. A single successful device is not a usability study. Missing data remains missing; it does not become a guarantee.

04 / ACTION

Make the decision useful.

The reader gets the implication before the sales link. A related VKV Studio service appears only where the briefing identifies a real next step. Service scope and current pricing live on VKVstudio.com.

WHO IS BEHIND THE DESK

One editor, accountable by name.

Valerii Karpov is responsible for this editorial desk. The current pilot uses human review. Any future automatic news workflow needs evidence, quality and rights checks, an exception queue and a way to stop publication. Client work appears only with permission.
