How we check.

Every fact, every story and every reply goes through the same checks. Here they are, in short.

This page says only what we really do today. Anything not built yet is marked Planned.

Facts

Every fact shows its source.

• Every fact carries a Checked mark: the source, the year, the study size and how sure science is (consensus, contested or unproven).

• We open every source: the DOI is resolved and the title matched, and we check that the paper was not retracted.

• Kids' facts are only what scientists agree on. When nobody knows yet, we write "we don't know yet".

• Mistakes are fixed in the open: every page keeps a dated corrections log, and no line is ever deleted.

See it on a page: Why do cats love boxes? (7 sources, each one checked)

Stories

Every story is read for child safety.

• Before an episode is published, an independent reviewer reads it for child safety: framing, poses, and how one panel looks out of context.

• We fix what the read finds before release. It has already meant redrawn art and a camera angle we no longer use.

• Art is AI-assisted (xAI Imagine) from our own hand-drawn design sheets; no real children's photos are used; every panel is human-reviewed.

Community

Rules for every reply.

• We never message or follow back accounts that look young, and we never speak in character as a child.

• Links in comments are reported, never answered.

• Reports go to the platform and to the NCMEC CyberTipline, the child-safety hotline.

• One named adult is in charge of moderation.

Privacy

Nothing to track.

• No trackers and no ads.

• No personal data about children.

• On this site there is nothing to sign up for.

These are our own rules. We do not claim any certification for them.
