Editorial policy

What each trust state requires, and what we will not publish.

The five states

StateRequirement
ConfirmedOfficially published by Blizzard. A primary source link is mandatory.
Developer statementSaid in a panel, interview or video. The occasion must be named.
AnalysisOur own interpretation. Never presented as a reveal.
RumorUnverified. The origin must be named or we do not publish it.
OutdatedWas correct, has been superseded. The page stays up with the correction.

Corrections

When a page changes materially - a fact is corrected, or a claim moves from one state to another - the change is written into that page's own change log with a date. We do not delete history.

What we will not do

  • Publish a rumour whose origin we cannot name.
  • Present analysis in a way that could be mistaken for an announcement.
  • Use official Diablo or Blizzard logos as if they were our own mark.
  • Imitate Blizzard's design so closely that readers assume an official affiliation.
  • Use screenshots beyond what a piece editorially requires, and never without attribution.

Contact for corrections

If something here is wrong, tell us. Corrections are welcome and are credited in the change log where relevant. Use the contact page.
