Barnakle Editorial Team

Editorial accountability

Barnakle Editorial Team is a collective editorial byline. It identifies the publication’s editorial work; it is not a degree, professional licence or a claim that every article has had specialist review.

Writing, editing and specialist review are separate roles. Any named author or reviewer and their relevant background should be identified on the individual story. The team byline alone does not establish medical or scientific qualifications.

Standards and corrections

Read our published policies for the standards that apply to sourcing, fact-checking, corrections, medical coverage and AI-assisted work. To question a claim or request a correction, use the corrections or contact page and include the article URL and the supporting evidence.
