This Editorial Policy explains how How Big Is Size articles are written, reviewed, updated and corrected. It applies to every guide on the site.
Who writes our articles?
Guides are published by the Editorial Desk. The Desk describes the topics it covers and how it checks work. Profiles do not claim formal qualifications, and we do not present any article as professional, medical, legal, engineering or financial advice.
How are articles written?
- We start from what readers actually search for and answer the main question in the first few lines.
- Conversions are checked against standard unit definitions (for example, the international inch and meter).
- Object and product dimensions are checked against manufacturer specifications or other primary published sources where they exist.
- Everyday comparison objects are chosen because readers already know them; we prefer common household and outdoor items over obscure ones.
- Images and diagrams on the site are original graphics created for our guides. We do not use scraped photos of private individuals.
How are articles reviewed?
Every guide is reviewed before it is published. The reviewer checks figures, conversions, examples and wording against the cited sources and asks for fixes before the page goes live. The byline shows who published the guide and when it was last updated.
How do we correct mistakes?
If you spot an error, email contact@howbigissize.com or use our contact page with the page link and what needs fixing. We check every report, correct confirmed errors as quickly as we can, and update the “Last updated” date when the change affects the content.
How often are articles updated?
We revisit guides when product sizes change, when readers report a problem, or when a clearer comparison becomes available. Small fixes to spelling or layout do not count as an update.
Independence and advertising
How Big Is Size is independent. Topics are chosen based on what readers need, not on payment. If we ever publish sponsored content or use affiliate links, we will label them clearly on the page.
