Content transparency

How Iran.md creates, reviews, and verifies its content.

What readers can verify

Article source lists, raw Markdown, and structured public outputs are open to inspection.

What is checked automatically

Source links, data consistency, and parts of the writing standard are covered by CI scripts.

What still needs judgment

Topic framing, balance between viewpoints, and voice discipline still require editorial review.

How content is created

Every article on Iran.md is the result of a multi-stage research and review process. Research tools help gather, compare, and structure information, but articles are not published without editorial review.

The process includes searching academic and institutional sources, comparing independent references, and rewriting until the text meets the project's editorial standard. Important claims need source support, and contested topics need multiple clearly separated perspectives.

Verification layers

Multi-source research

Each topic is checked across Persian and English sources, including academic and institutional material.

Cross-checking

Information is compared across independent references, and contradictions are recorded instead of hidden.

Editorial review

Articles are reviewed for accuracy, tone, structure, and adherence to the editorial rules.

Automated checks

Automated scripts check source records, writing standards, and content data consistency.

Limitations

No information source is free from error, including Iran.md. Content may be incomplete, outdated, or incorrect. The project should be read as a documented reference, not as a substitute for primary sources.

Some topics are complex and carry different interpretations. Iran.md tries to present multiple perspectives, but choosing which perspectives to represent is itself an editorial decision.

Editorial reminder

Iran.md content is informational. For important decisions, verify information against primary sources. Iran.md assumes no responsibility for decisions made based on this content.

Your role

Sources for every article are listed at the bottom of the page. Readers are encouraged to consult the original sources directly. If you find an error or know a better source, report it through GitHub.
