| Q: |
How frequently do you refresh your content? |
| A: |
Because this is a history website, most of what you'll see on PESH is
‘evergreen’ content. They do not go out of date even if new information
may be added from time to time and different interpretations may emerge
from the materials extant. The contents of PESH are updated whenever
new entries are submitted, verified and approved.
|
|
| Q: |
How do I know your content is accurate? |
| A: |
This is a moderated site. We endeavour to publish accurate and
reliable information. All submissions are sent to our in-house team
of experts for verification and approval before being added to the site.
However, as with any other publication, you should approach whatever you
read on PESH with some skepticism and understanding that humans sometimes
err even if they do not intend to do so. Any errors on the site are NOT
intentional, but inadvertent and if you find an error,
please email us and let us know.
