A correction changed the headline but not the archive

Editorial composite. This alias and dialogue are rewritten from recurring evidence questions. They do not identify a community member or reproduce a private conversation.

Changing a headline can fix the current page while leaving screenshots, feeds, and quoted copies in circulation. A visible correction note connects the old statement to the new one.

The note should say what changed, when it changed, and why. It does not need to repeat unnecessary personal details. Quiet deletion makes later readers guess whether the record was corrected, withdrawn, or simply lost.

A correction record should retain the earlier wording only when doing so is necessary to understand the change. Privacy-sensitive details can stay removed.

Feeds and search snippets may lag behind the page. A dated correction note gives those stale copies a stable destination to point back to.
