Editorial policy

Eastern Sports Insider aims to explain sport across eastern Asia with accuracy, context and a clear distinction between editorial coverage and material created with partners.

Accuracy and context

We check factual details against suitable sources and consider how rules, names and traditions vary by sport and place. We use careful wording when information is incomplete or disputed, and avoid turning a single example into a claim about an entire region.

Independence

Editorial choices are made for their relevance to readers. A partnership does not guarantee coverage, and commercial arrangements do not determine our conclusions. We aim to make the purpose and limits of each piece clear.

Corrections

If you spot a factual error or an unclear passage, contact us through the Contact page and identify the article and issue. We review correction requests and amend published material when a change is warranted.

Partner material and illustrations

Sponsored or partner material is clearly labelled so readers can distinguish it from editorial coverage. Some illustrations may be AI-generated; where relevant, we identify them as such and do not present illustrative images as documentary evidence.
