Publication integrity
Corrections
WIMA distinguishes a correction to an earlier error from an update caused by a later event.
Public correction record
No public records
No material correction notices are recorded
No material correction notice has been published for the pages in this rebuild as at 2 October 2026. This state does not cover ordinary spelling, formatting or broken-link repairs that do not change meaning.
What WIMA corrects publicly
A public notice is required when an error changes or could materially distort a fact, date, status, source, calculation, ranking, classification, authorship statement, limitation or structured-data field. A fixed data release or versioned document is not overwritten under the same identifier.
Correction classes
- Presentation repair
- Spelling, punctuation, layout or an equivalent replacement link where meaning and evidence do not change.
- Material correction
- An earlier fact, source, status, value or qualification was wrong, but the work remains usable after repair.
- Revised release
- A change affects a substantial part of a fixed dataset, method or conclusion and requires a new version.
- Withdrawal
- The central work cannot remain reliable or safe, or publication was not authorised.
What a notice contains
A material correction notice identifies:
- the affected page, record, document version or release;
- the incorrect wording or value and the corrected wording or value;
- the source and exact provision supporting the correction;
- the correction date and the effect on conclusions or related outputs;
- the accountable approver or approved body, when available; and
- links between the notice, the corrected item and the previous safe version.
Report a possible error

Include the page URL, the exact statement or field, why it may be wrong and the public source that supports the report.

Assessment and outcome
A report is checked against the preserved page version and the highest-authority available source. The outcome may be a correction, clarification, update, no change, withdrawal or referral to a privacy, security or legal process. A change is not labelled as an update when it repairs an error.
