Editorial policy

Three kinds of content, three different processes. This page describes how the site actually works today.

1. Facts

Where they come from. Public sources across the web: film, TV and game databases, encyclopedias, interviews, production notes, official statements and established publications. The Turkish editor’s archive is the master: facts are translated into Turkish, rewritten, sorted by topic (production story, behind the scenes, cast and characters, references, deeper meaning, career, life and family), spoiler-marked and attached to the page they belong to. English entries are translations of that archive; some older English entries carry their own source list. Sources are not normally shown next to each fact; selected reviewed Jurassic Park entries in English and the other editions carry scoped source and translation records. The reference databases a page draws on (Wikipedia, IMDb) are listed at the bottom of the page under “Sources & editorial notes”, and the kinds of sources we use under Sources.

Page size. A page aims for at least 11 and at most 47 facts. Facts with an editor’s note come first: when the editor finishes a page, only the annotated facts stay and the page is republished with a new title and images. Older, crowded pages move to this layout one by one.

Accuracy. Entries pass automated rule checks before publication (name and number consistency, translation rules, duplicate claims). We do not verify every fact against a primary source and we do not claim to. When we learn that a fact is wrong we correct or withdraw it.

2. Editor’s notes, analyses and lists

The “Editor’s note” boxes under facts, the analyses and the lists are written one hundred percent by a human: the site’s founder, sufferwithme, a person with a lasting interest in art, science and philosophy. No AI writes them, and new ones are added regularly. What you read in English is a translation of the Turkish original. Sometimes AI may create new lists whose foundation was laid by a human mind and a human hand: it starts from one of the editor’s own lists and drafts the selection, the title and the introduction; the comments under each entry and the ranking are the editor’s, and the list goes live only after the editor approves it.

3. Where we use AI

• Translating and rewriting facts into Turkish, followed by rule checks and the editor’s corrections.
• Translating the English and the fourteen other language editions (notes, analyses and lists included); every translation passes rule checks, anything that fails is held back for the editor.
• Sorting facts into topics and suggesting page titles (the editor decides).
• Matching scene images to facts (an image-description model plus a text model); an image that does not fit is not shown.
• Deriving new lists from the editor’s own lists (selection, title, introduction); the editor decides what is published.

AI never writes an editor’s note or an analysis, and never invents and publishes a fact on its own. Sometimes AI may create new lists whose foundation was laid by a human mind and a human hand.

Selected source and translation records

The 2 November 2026 Jurassic Park review covered ten selected Turkish facts and their translations into fourteen languages. The English edition received the same ten selected entries, corrections and review records on 3 November. This is not a verification of every fact or of the entire archive. The costume chronology, sound Oscar and visual-effects award record were checked against primary sources. Reading guides and translation reviews are AI-assisted and are kept separate from the founder’s personal editor’s notes. A fluent translation does not independently establish a claim’s accuracy. Records are hidden automatically if the underlying text changes.

4. Images

Posters and portraits are shown for identification (TheTVDB, TVMaze, fanart.tv, IGDB, IMDb and Wikimedia Commons). Since October 2026 the scene images next to facts come only from Wikimedia Commons; the author and licence are written under every image. Stills from Fandom wikis, TVMaze, TheTVDB, fanart.tv and IGDB are no longer shown because they are not freely licensed. Facts with an editor’s note may also carry an IMDb publicity still, labelled “Image: IMDb”. Rights holders can ask for an image to be removed.

5. Copyright and complaints

Facts are compiled from other sources, translated and rewritten; an individual entry may stay close to its source wording, and we do not measure that entry by entry. Notes, analyses and lists are the editor’s own writing. If you have a copyright, personality-rights or other legal complaint, write to iletisim@arkaevren.com; we review every request and correct or remove content where justified. To report a wrong fact, use the Report link under the fact or contact us.
