Dating New Zealand uses a straightforward editorial standard: answer the reader's actual question, distinguish stable advice from changing facts, and remove claims that cannot be supported.
Editorial Policy
A page begins with one reader problem and a defined scope. Material that belongs to another question is moved to a separate guide or left out, which keeps closely related pages from becoming rewrites of one another.
How this site works
- Official and first-party sources are preferred for rules, public information, service details, and other facts controlled by an organization or authority.
- When a guide uses local examples, they must help explain a real decision such as access, distance, timing, local conditions, or audience fit.
- A source does not turn an opinion into a fact. Editorial conclusions are presented as judgment, not as statistics or universal rules.
Reader choices
When a material fact changes or a guide contains an error, the affected passage is corrected. Unsupported details are removed instead of being filled with an estimate or a plausible-sounding substitute.
The editorial standard is designed for useful, inspectable guidance: specific where evidence allows it and cautious only where uncertainty is real.
