Editorial & Verification Policy
We hold ourselves to strict journalistic and technical documentation standards. Here is how we verify data, classify information, and ensure every page delivers authentic value.
1. Four Tiers of Information Verification
In accordance with our anti-misinformation charter, every piece of information published on Spirit Crossing Wiki is cataloged under one of four distinct certainty tiers:
Information directly published in Spry Fox developer announcements, Steam Store manifests (App ID 2321960), official trailers, or public interviews with Art Director Justin Oaksford.
Data gathered and cross-checked by our editorial staff during closed beta and launch client gameplay (e.g., exact fish coin sell values, gift point yields, and thermal weather triggers).
Data reported by multiple independent players across forums or community playtests that awaits direct laboratory reproduction. Always explicitly marked as "Pending Re-Verification".
Fan theories or unannounced features. We do not publish Tier D content as factual guide material to prevent misleading our readership.
2. Prohibition on AI Slop and Thin Content
We categorically prohibit the generation of repetitive, auto-generated placeholder pages. We do not spin competitor articles, fabricate drop chances, or create empty database shells. Every URL on our site exists to solve a real player problem.
3. Corrections and Transparency
When game balance patches alter drop rates, recipe requirements, or system optimizations, our editors update corresponding guides within 24 hours. If you spot an inaccuracy, you can submit a correction notice via our Contact Form.
