Site information

Editorial Standards

How Fried Chicken Guide handles originality, sourcing, restaurant claims, corrections and advertising.

Originality and page purpose

Each page must solve a distinct reader problem. The site avoids publishing multiple pages that merely rearrange the same tips around a new keyword.

Restaurant claims

The site does not claim to have visited, tasted or independently tested a restaurant unless that work actually occurred and is documented. It does not publish permanent local “best” lists without current research.

Sourcing

Safety-sensitive statements should rely on official agencies or primary sources. Restaurant menus, hours and addresses should be checked against the restaurant’s own current information.

Tools

Calculators are transparent planning aids. Outputs are estimates, not guarantees or professional advice.

Advertising separation

Advertising does not determine ratings, inclusion or editorial conclusions. Sponsored material, if ever published, must be clearly identified.

Corrections and updates

Pages show a reviewed date. Material errors are corrected when credible evidence is provided. Small style changes may not receive a public correction note.
