Editorial Standards

Hamidun News aggregates and adapts AI/tech news with AI assistance under human editorial oversight. These standards explain how.

01

Sourcing

  • We aggregate from 42+ RSS feeds (TechCrunch, The Verge, Bloomberg Tech, Anthropic Blog, OpenAI Blog and others) and 8 first-party SPA sites.
  • Every article cites the source via a prominent link and via structured data (the isBasedOn schema.org property).
  • We never publish without naming the original source.
02

AI assistance

  • Original article text is rewritten with Claude Haiku to a consistent house style (250–400 words for the short version, 800–1,500 words for the extended one).
  • A quality-control layer filters transliteration artifacts (e.g. Russian «забут» for “booed”) and demotes low-quality rewrites (quality_score ≤ 4).
  • Translations to en/es/pt/fr/ar use Gemini 2.5 Flash with empty-body detection and retry.
  • AI does not invent facts; rewrites preserve the numbers, names and quotes of the source.
03

Editorial oversight

  • Editor-in-chief: Zhemal Khamidun.
  • Curation: a pyramid top-8-per-24h algorithm filters by quality_score; the Telegram channel receives the daily curated top.
  • The morning digest is human-reviewable in the admin dashboard before broadcast.
04

Speed of correction

  • Spotted an error? Email [email protected].
  • We aim to acknowledge within 24 hours and fix within 48 hours.
  • All corrections are logged on the Corrections page with a permanent entry.
05

AI ethics & transparency

  • AI assistance is disclosed on every article via a badge under the byline.
  • We follow the EU AI Act Article 50 transparency requirements for our AR/FR/ES audiences and apply the same rules to all languages.
  • We do not use AI to fabricate quotes, sources or facts.
