Corrections & review log

What we log & what “Re-reviewed” means

We log a correction when a factual statement, translation, source attribution, cultural scope, or explanation changes enough that a returning reader should know. Each record links to the affected page and separates what changed from what remained intact.

A “Re-reviewed” status means the revised passage and the specific correction were checked again. It does not imply external certification or a review of every unrelated sentence on the page.

Minor spelling, grammar, layout, and link repairs are made without a public log entry when they do not change meaning.

Re-reviewed ·

Before

The sources section said a human language reviewer had not signed off either the guide or the individual terms, even after the glossary’s project-owner review was recorded on October 13, 2026.

After

The sources section acknowledges the glossary terms’ recorded project-owner review dated October 13, 2026 and states that the separate pinyin guide still awaits human language review.

Why it changed
The blanket statement no longer matched the glossary review record and obscured which material had actually been reviewed.
How we checked it
Compared the guide with the glossary’s project-owner review fields and the October 13 review record, including its explicit exclusion of the separate guide from that sign-off.
What did not change
No glossary definitions, pinyin readings or pronunciation guidance changed. The guide still awaits human language review; the project-owner sign-off does not imply independent certification.

Before

The method described the difference as one or two years and did not mention dates when both systems return the same age.

After

The method now says the ages may be equal, or nominal age may be one or two years greater, depending on the birth date and the as-of date.

Why it changed
A Gregorian birthday can occur before the next Lunar New Year. In that interval, both conventions can produce the same numerical age.
How we checked it
The boundary example uses a birth date of February 1, 2023 and an as-of date of February 1, 2024. Both ages are one, and an automated regression test preserves that case.
What did not change
No calculation code changed. The correction made the visible explanation and FAQ accurately describe an already-supported result.
