DevStackIO is committed to correcting errors in its content transparently and promptly. This page explains how to report a problem and what happens after you do.
Last updated: 5 October 2026.
Reporting a problem
If you believe an article contains a factual error, outdated information, a broken link, or a misleading claim, email [email protected]. Please include:
- the article title and full URL;
- the specific passage, quoted or with the section heading;
- what you believe is wrong, and what the correct information is;
- a source for the correct information if you have one — a documentation page, advisory, specification or announcement;
- for a broken link, the link that failed and where you clicked it.
One email can cover several articles. Screenshots and log output help where the issue is a broken command or an error message.
How reports are reviewed
Every report is checked against a reliable source before anything changes. If a report is right, the article is corrected. If the article is right and the report is mistaken, we reply to say so, and we do not change correct content to suit a complaint. We do not publish or repeat a reader’s claim simply because it was submitted.
What we correct, and how visibly
- Factual errors that change the answer — a wrong version, a wrong command flag, an incorrect number, a claim that turns out to be wrong — are corrected, and the article carries a dated correction note at the point of the correction.
- Smaller factual errors, such as a typo, a broken internal link or a stale screenshot caption, are corrected without a visible note.
- Outdated content is updated so the article reflects the current state of the tools it covers, and the updated text appears in the article rather than only in a changelog.
- Opinion and judgement is not a matter of correction. If you disagree with a conclusion, a recommendation or a framing, we will read the argument and say whether we are persuaded, but we do not change an article to reflect disagreement alone.
- Requests that are promotional — adding a link, softening criticism, removing an accurate statement — are declined.
Response times
DevStackIO is run by one person. Reports about factual errors and broken links are the priority and are normally handled first, but we cannot promise a specific turnaround. A correction usually appears within a few days of confirmation; larger re-verification of a long article can take longer, and we will say so if that happens.
Corrections archive
Correction notes are kept in the article they relate to, so the history of a correction stays with the content it corrects. We do not maintain a separate corrections log, because a reader who opens an article should be able to see what has been fixed without chasing a separate page.
Security reports
Security reports are handled through this address too, under the responsible disclosure process in our Terms of Use. Please give us a reasonable opportunity to remediate a problem before you disclose it publicly.
