Science University publishes science reference material for general education. This policy describes the standards used to select topics, explain evidence and revise published pages.
Evidence and accuracy
Articles should reflect the best-supported scientific understanding available at the time of publication. Strong claims require strong sources. Where evidence is incomplete, disputed or dependent on context, the wording should communicate that uncertainty rather than erase it.
Clarity without distortion
Technical concepts may be simplified for accessibility, but simplification should not reverse the meaning of the science. Diagrams and analogies are labeled as schematic when they are not literal or to scale.
Sources
Preference is given to primary research where appropriate, major scientific and public-health agencies, systematic reviews, consensus reports and established academic reference material. Source quality matters more than the number of links. See the Sources & Citation Policy.
Health and medical topics
Health content is educational and does not provide individualized diagnosis or treatment. Statements about benefits, risks or disease should be supported by reliable medical or public-health sources. See the Medical Disclaimer.
Updates and corrections
Evergreen pages are revised when new evidence materially changes an explanation, when a source becomes obsolete, or when an error is identified. Meaningful factual corrections should be made promptly. See the Corrections Policy.
Conflicts and commercial influence
Editorial explanations should not be shaped by advertisers, sponsors or product sellers. If a material commercial relationship affects a page, it should be disclosed clearly.
