The record can be repaired.

We correct factual errors, misleading omissions, broken links, mistranslations, misattributed quotations, inaccurate spellings, and descriptions that flatten a community or present a disputed claim as settled.

A correction does not mean that every disagreement is an error. Editors assess whether a claim is wrong, inadequately supported, outdated, or better presented with additional context.

Use the “Report an error” form at the end of this page, or the “Report it” link at the end of any article, which fills in the article for you. Name the page, copy the exact passage, explain the problem, and include a source or other evidence when available. Specific reports can be checked and resolved more quickly than general objections.

Reports go to the Pashtunxwa editorial team and are not published. Your name and email address are optional; we use them only to ask you about your report.

Two routes exist on every article: “Report it” opens this form, and “Suggest an edit” lets a signed-in contributor rewrite the passage instead; an editor reviews the suggestion before it appears.

An editor reviews the report against the article’s sources and, when needed, asks a subject specialist to assess language, history, or cultural context. The team may correct the page, add a qualification, record a competing view, or explain why no change is warranted.

Material corrections should leave a brief note in the editorial record. The public page should reflect the corrected information without turning the article into a running log of internal discussion.

Claims that could put a living person or community at risk receive additional care. We may temporarily remove or restrict a passage while checking it. Privacy, safety, and dignity take priority over speed or completeness.
