Corrections Policy
Report an error
CompatRef welcomes reports concerning:
- Incorrect compatibility classifications
- Incorrect model names
- Incorrect part numbers or SKUs
- Missing compatibility conditions
- Broken or outdated source links
- Conflicting manufacturer documentation
- Incorrect family assignments
- Other factual errors
Send reports to corrections@compatref.com.
What to include
When possible, include:
- The CompatRef page URL
- The model name and model number
- The part name and SKU
- A description of the suspected error
- A link to supporting manufacturer or retailer evidence
- The relevant country or market
- Any purchase-date or hardware-revision information
How reports are reviewed
Submitted reports are checked against available manufacturer documentation and other relevant sources.
A report does not automatically change a record. CompatRef may:
- Correct the record
- Add or change a compatibility condition
- Replace or supplement a source
- Change the classification to Unknown
- Retain the existing classification when stronger evidence supports it
Correction principles
When a confirmed error is corrected:
- The affected record is updated.
- Its verification date is reviewed.
- Related model, part, and family pages are checked for the same issue.
- Material corrections are added to the public correction log below.
Minor spelling, formatting, and broken-link repairs may be made without a correction-log entry when they do not change the compatibility meaning.
