Named editorial accountability
Published guides are attributed to the DaoReader Editorial Team. DaoReader does not invent practitioner credentials, expert biographies, or first-hand experience that the team cannot substantiate.
Editorial policy
Traceable sources, visible uncertainty, and accountable editing.
DaoReader publishes BaZi guides for careful English-language learning. This policy explains who is accountable, how sources are used, what AI may assist with, and how material corrections are reviewed.
Independent source support
A reviewed guide cites at least two independent sources. Each citation states what it supports, such as a definition, calendar framework, lookup convention, or published interpretation method. DaoReader product copy is not independent BaZi evidence.
Method before conclusion
Editors separate reproducible chart facts from school-dependent interpretation and real-world evidence. Where sources or lineages differ, the page names the convention or preserves the disagreement.
Responsible-use limits
Guides cannot make deterministic predictions or provide medical, legal, financial, mental-health, or safety advice. BaZi remains an entertainment and self-reflection framework.
Review workflow
A reviewed page must leave an evidence trail.
Search performance may help prioritize a page, but zero impressions alone never decides whether useful content should disappear.
- 1Define one primary reader question and check it against existing Learn pages for intent overlap.
- 2Draft a direct answer, method, bounded example, uncertainty notes, relevant internal links, and no more than two conversion modules.
- 3Verify source independence and record the exact support scope of every citation.
- 4Run structural, duplicate-copy, safety, link, image, canonical, schema, sitemap, llms.txt, and indexing checks.
- 5Review the English for natural phrasing and compare the rendered desktop and mobile page before release.
- 6Publish with truthful author, publication, update, and review dates; retain the prior evidence in the recovery manifest.
AI-assisted work
AI tools may help organize drafts, compare repeated language, or run consistency checks. DaoReader remains responsible for source scope, final wording, privacy, safety boundaries, and corrections. AI output is never counted as a source.
Corrections
- Identify the page URL and the exact statement or calculation that may be wrong.
- Provide a source or reproducible example when possible, without sending birth data or other sensitive information.
- Use the DaoReader support address shown in the relevant account, order, or delivery message. General editorial requests that lack a published support channel remain queued until a safe contact route is available.
- If a correction changes meaning, sourcing, or indexing, the page receives a new updated date and passes the full quality gate again.
