Editorial Policy

This policy describes how CodePlay Insights produces articles. It applies to everything published in the Insights section.

Sourcing

We are an aggregator of leads, not a scraper of content. We monitor official blogs, first-party APIs, permitted RSS and release feeds, and public developer communities. We do not copy third-party article bodies. Each article links the primary source, and short quotes are used only for attribution.

Writing

Articles are produced by CodePlay's AI-assisted editorial workflow, to standards set by our team. Articles must:

• lead with the confirmed facts and cite where they come from;
• clearly separate reporting from CodePlay's analysis and predictions;
• add original value — the developer, business and, where relevant,

gaming perspective — rather than restating the news;

• avoid hype language and never claim hands-on testing we did not do.

Review

Before an article is published, automated checks confirm that:

• claims are supported by the linked sources;
• confidence is represented honestly (confirmed / likely / rumour);
• there are at least two independent sources for a news story, or the

article is held for review;

• headlines are accurate and not clickbait;
• the piece meets our quality threshold. Drafts that fall below it stay

in review and are not published to hit a schedule.

Independence

CodePlay Insights articles are not paid placements. If we write about a technology we also build with, that relationship is disclosed in the article. Internal links to CodePlay services are marked as such.
