== Purpose ==<br />
This principle affirms that identifying and repairing mistakes improves the reliability of the record.<br />
<br />
== Principle ==<br />
'''Corrections strengthen accuracy.'''<br />
<br />
== Meaning ==<br />
When an error is acknowledged and amended through proper process, the resulting record more closely reflects what occurred.<br />
Correction increases clarity and confidence.<br />
<br />
Refinement is part of responsibility.<br />
<br />
== Why This Matters ==<br />
* Future readers rely on precision.<br />
* Honest repair builds credibility.<br />
* Communities gain confidence in record keepers.<br />
* Accuracy improves over time rather than degrading.<br />
<br />
== Correction as Stewardship ==<br />
Caring for knowledge includes maintaining it.<br />
Leaving mistakes unaddressed allows distortion to spread.<br />
<br />
== Examples ==<br />
* Fixing misheard wording after review.<br />
* Adjusting dates or names.<br />
* Adding missing context.<br />
* Clarifying ambiguity discovered later.<br />
<br />
== Correction vs Alteration ==<br />
Correction aims at truth. <br />
Alteration seeks advantage.<br />
<br />
The difference is intention and transparency.<br />
<br />
== Risks if Avoided ==<br />
* Errors harden into “facts.”<br />
* Trust declines.<br />
* Misinterpretation grows.<br />
* Later repair becomes harder.<br />
<br />
== Safeguards ==<br />
* Encourage reporting of mistakes.<br />
* Maintain visible change history.<br />
* Separate original material from updates.<br />
* Involve lawful authorities when meaning is affected.<br />
<br />
== Cross-references ==<br />
* [[Errors Must Be Identified and Corrected]]<br />
* [[Recording Requires Careful Attention to Accuracy]]<br />
* [[Revision Does Not Imply Instability of Law]]<br />
* [[Version History Supports Transparency]]<br />
* [[Accuracy and Restraint Preserve Integrity]]<br />
