Editorial Policy

Our Standard

SplatAtlas exists to help players. That means accuracy comes first. We never publish fabricated game data, and we never present speculation as fact.

Evidence Tiers

Every claim on SplatAtlas is labeled with one of three tiers:

Official

Information directly from Nintendo -- press releases, official game pages, patch notes, in-game text. We link to the source when possible.

Tested

Data we have personally verified in the release version of the game. This includes weapon stats, boss patterns, item locations, and gameplay mechanics. We note the game version and date tested.

Unconfirmed

Information from community reports, datamines, pre-release previews, or other unofficial sources. We publish unconfirmed data when it is useful to players, but always mark it clearly and update it once we can verify.

Corrections

If you find an error on SplatAtlas, please let us know at contact@splatatlas.com. We take corrections seriously and will update the relevant page promptly.

AI and Automation

We may use AI tools to assist with translation, formatting, and content drafting. All published content is reviewed and verified by human editors. We do not publish AI-generated game data without independent verification.

No Fabrication Policy

We will never invent boss names, weapon stats, story details, or other game data to fill pages before launch. If a guide is not ready, we mark it as "Coming at launch" rather than publishing speculative content.
