Website Content:
All content on this website is subject to change at any time without notice.
stevencoogan.co.uk attempts to ensure that information on this website is complete, accurate, and current. Despite our efforts, the information on this Website may occasionally be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, stevencoogan.co.uk makes no representation as to how complete, accurate, or current any information is on this Website.
stevencoogan.co.uk may make changes to its Website design, functionality and/or content at any time, and may provide links to other sites that are not maintained by stevencoogan.co.uk. stevencoogan.co.uk does not endorse those sites and is not responsible for the content of such other sites.
The content may not be available for use outside of the UK. stevencoogan.co.uk makes no representation that any content is appropriate or available for use outside the UK, its territories, possessions and protectorates. If you choose to access the Site from other locations, you do so on your own initiative and at your own risk. You are responsible for complying with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable. You specifically agree to comply with all applicable laws concerning the transmission of technical data exported from the UK or the country you reside in.
Our Corrections Policy:
At stevencoogan.co.uk we strive to present our articles in a factual manner with fact-checked, vetted and verified information. If you believe we’ve made an error or need to clarify something, please contact us at steven@stevencoogan.co.uk.
We will respond as quickly as possible, and if a clarification or correction is in order, we will make those changes within the article itself and then note the changes or clarification at the bottom or top of the article in question. Serious errors will be placed as an “Update” at the top of the article; others will be noted at the end. We will also note how those errors came to our attention.
We will make clarifications if the information in the article in question is factually correct, but could be more clearly stated or detailed. For balance, we also may add comments from qualified sources who offer new information that may contrast or disagree with what we’ve presented.
If we find no corrections or changes are necessary, we will add a statement acknowledging the concerns and why we did not make changes. At that time, we may also add clarifications with supporting evidence to back our position as to why we did not make changes.
Additionally, we invite everyone to participate in the Comments section at the end of each article, where opinions, ideas and commentary are always welcome from all sides of an issue.
How Do You Know What’s Fact and What’s Opinion in a stevencoogan.co.uk Article?
It’s easy to know what’s opinion and what is fact-based by checking the sources and references that accompany every stevencoogan.co.uk article.
For example, statements of fact will be fully referenced with at least one endnote and, often, multiple endnotes. When information from an outside source is used, besides endnotes, we will identify these statements with quotation marks. When extensive information from another source is used, we will indent and italicize the statements or quotes, so you can easily see that this is someone else talking, be it from an interview or a journal source.
Additionally, sources who make statements of opinion will be clearly identified — we never use anonymous sources. We also will add biographical information on any quoted source to give you an idea why that person has expertise in the topic we’re discussing.
From time to time we may invite others to write an article expressing their points of view on a particular topic. Those points may also include endnotes, but in every instance, these articles will include a byline and brief bio of the persons writing them, so you will know when someone other than stevencoogan.co.uk is speaking.
