Editorial policy

Stellar Rugby Review aims to be clear about what we know, what we mean and what needs correcting. We value careful explanation over certainty for its own sake.

Accuracy and context

We take care with rugby terminology and the distinctions between laws, competition formats, interpretations and customary practice. We check factual claims against suitable published material when preparing articles, give context where a rule or format matters, and avoid presenting a debated tactical reading as the only possible one. We do not claim to have conducted research or first-hand testing unless an article explicitly and truthfully says so.

Independence and partnerships

Editorial decisions are made for readers, not as a promise of favourable coverage. Paid, sponsored or partner material is identified clearly where it appears and kept distinct from independent editorial work. A partnership does not guarantee a particular editorial conclusion.

Corrections

If a reader spots an error, they can contact us with the article title, the passage in question and any helpful context. We review correction requests and amend material when warranted, making meaningful corrections clear to readers.

Images and illustrations

Some illustrations may be generated with AI. Where this applies, we label the image accordingly and do not present an illustrative image as documentary evidence of a real match or event.
