Editorial policy

Modern Leisure Guide aims to make clear, engaging reading about pastimes and free time. We distinguish explanatory information from opinion, avoid presenting personal preference as universal, and correct errors when they are brought to our attention.

Accuracy and clarity

We check factual statements against suitable sources and take care not to overstate what they establish. When a piece compares options, we describe the basis of the comparison rather than declaring one choice best for everyone. Readers can contact us through the Contact page to flag an error; we review credible correction requests and update affected material where warranted.

Independence and partnerships

Editorial decisions are made for readers, not as a condition of a commercial relationship. Any paid, sponsored or partner material is clearly labelled so it can be distinguished from independent editorial coverage. A partnership does not guarantee favourable coverage, and commercial placement does not determine our conclusions.

Images and illustration

Images are chosen to serve the subject and are not presented as evidence of an event or a test unless that is clearly explained. Some illustrations may be generated with AI; we identify them where they appear so readers can tell an illustration from a photograph or other documentary image.

Corrections and reader questions

A useful correction identifies the article and the point in question, and explains what may be wrong. We review questions in good faith, make changes when appropriate and aim to keep the wording clear about what is known, what is interpretation and what remains a matter of taste.
