Editorial Policy

How カエルフェスティバル chooses topics, checks claims, names writers, dates articles and handles corrections and commercial links.

The promise behind the site

Anyone can claim to be careful. This page sets out what careful means at カエルフェスティバル in enough detail that you can check whether we keep to it.

From idea to published

  1. Draft from experience, not from a page of search results.
  2. Underline every claim that rests on memory rather than a source.
  3. Support it or lose it. Each underline is backed by something we can name, or it comes out.
  4. A cold read by a second person catches the confident guesses the writer stopped seeing.

Dates

Published means published. We do not bump dates to look active, and an edit only changes the modified date when it changes what the article actually tells you to do.

Where money enters

Yes, some outbound links pay. What they pay for is the hosting bill, not the wording of the assessment sitting next to them.

Requests to soften a verdict are declined, and we keep them on file. More than one has become the subject of its own paragraph later.

How we choose what to write

We keep a running list of questions readers send us, plus questions we had ourselves and could not find a straight answer to. A topic gets written when it appears on that list more than once.

Who signs the work

Bylines are real people with real archives attached. If you disagree with a piece, you can see what else the same person has written and judge accordingly.

霧島 颯太, 編集長・RPG担当. RPGを中心に年間50本以上を遊ぶ会社員ゲーマー。長く遊んだからこそ分かる良い点と悪い点を書いています。

花澤 芽衣, フィットネスゲーム担当. リングフィットとFit Boxingで運動を続けている在宅ワーカー。続けるコツを記録しています。

岡部 蓮, ガジェット担当. キーボードやSwitch周辺機器を自腹で買って試すのが趣味。使ってわかったことだけを書きます。

Putting things right

Corrections go to [email protected]. Include the address and the sentence. Anything factual is fixed without argument. Anything that changes what the article recommends gets a dated note underneath, so the change is visible.
