Every page now clears a 1,400-word floor with original figures, carries a named editor and a visible version badge, and is rewritten on a schedule rather than left to age.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The Curator today published its full editorial standards and completed the move of its library to a living-article model, in which every page is versioned, dated, and rewritten on a schedule rather than published once and forgotten.
What changed
A hard quality floor. No article publishes without at least 1,400 words of visible body copy and a minimum of two original visual elements — a comparison table, a timeline diagram, a concept map, or a labelled statistics panel. Word count is measured on rendered text, so headings, captions, and navigation cannot pad it. Figures are generated from each article's own data rather than pulled from a stock library, so they match the text they sit beside.
Named accountability. Every article carries an editorial byline. The named editor is accountable for the page's claims, and corrections are made at the source with the date shown.
Disclosed AI assistance. Drafting is AI-assisted, and every page discloses it. Drafts follow a brief requiring twelve distinct sections with different jobs — definition, origin, mechanism, comparison, timeline, misconceptions, implications, limits, references — and drafts returning fewer sections, or sections with empty bodies, are discarded before a URL is assigned.
Versioned, living pages. Published articles join an evolution queue and are reassessed on a cycle for accuracy, currency, internal linking, and depth against the rest of the library. Pages needing work are rewritten in place; the version increments and the update date changes. Version badges appear publicly on every article.
Library audit
The library was audited against today's standard rather than the standard in force when each page was written. Pages that no longer cleared the floor were withdrawn from circulation immediately rather than quietly left up, and are being rewritten batch by batch. Any page that still fails after a rewrite remains unpublished.
"Pulling our own pages costs us traffic in the short term," said the editorial team. "We did it because a library is judged by its worst page as much as its best."
Commitments
The Curator does not publish pages that exist only to intercept a search query, does not spin a single article into near-duplicate variants for alternate phrasings, and does not fabricate statistics, quotes, credentials, awards, or sources. A figure that cannot be traced to something checkable does not appear on the page.
