Editorial policy

Konekton’s guides are written by its editorial team, the team at Konekton. This page describes how a guide goes from a question to a published page, and how it is kept right afterwards.

Choosing the questions

Each guide answers a general question about clothes that many readers ask, wherever they shop: how to choose a size, how to read a product page, how to care for a fabric, how to build a wardrobe. A guide is practical: it explains how something works and what to check, and it says what varies between makers, stores and countries instead of giving one country’s answer as the only one.

Research and sources

Guides are researched from sources that hold across markets: retailers’ own help and product pages, international standards, reference works and published research. Every guide lists the sources it rests on. A page that changes over time, such as a store’s returns or delivery terms, is cited with the date it was seen, and the guide says that it is an example and where to check the current version.

How guides are written

Drafts are prepared with the help of AI writing tools and are then checked by the team against the sources the guide lists before they are published: every figure, every number and every description of a store’s page. A store’s page is opened and cited with the date it was seen. When a source cannot be opened in full, such as a paper behind an access check, a guide uses only what the source’s own summary and other published descriptions of it agree on, and says less rather than more. Illustrations and charts are drawn for Konekton; a chart that shows an illustration rather than real data says so in its caption. Guides never claim tests or experiences that did not happen.

Stores and brands

Some guides name retailers to show how their pages, sizes, delivery or returns work. A store named in a guide is described, never ranked, endorsed or recommended, and links to its pages carry no tracking or commission codes. Konekton receives nothing from the stores it mentions.

Corrections and updates

When a reader points out a mistake or a cited page changes, the team checks the source and corrects the guide. A corrected or updated guide shows its updated date at the top, beside the date it was first published. Corrections can be sent to contact@konekton.net.

Advertising and independence

Konekton carries advertising to pay for the publication. Advertisers have no say in which questions the guides answer or in what they say, and ads are labelled and kept apart from the text. The advertising disclosure explains this in more detail.
