Editorial Policy

How WhatToAsk AI chooses topics, writes guides, handles sources, and discloses AI assistance.

Topic selection

We choose topics that help readers ask clearer, safer, and more useful questions to AI tools. Priority goes to repeatable frameworks, practical examples, verification habits, and workflow guidance.

Writing and editing standards

Articles should answer the reader's core intent quickly, then provide examples, pitfalls, and review criteria. We avoid exaggerated claims, fake expertise, and prompt formulas that imply guaranteed results.

Source standards

When an article makes factual claims about AI prompting, safety, or tool behavior, it should rely on primary or credible sources where possible. Source links should be checked for relevance, accessibility, and publication context.

Fact-checking approach

Claims about laws, prices, model capabilities, schedules, or current product behavior should be verified before publication and updated when they change. Guides should distinguish general prompting practices from tool-specific instructions.

AI usage disclosure

The initial site build used AI assistance for planning, drafting, metadata, and consistency checks. The site owner should perform human editorial review before publication and remains responsible for final content, claims, links, policies, and contact details.
