Publishing principles
The reader comes before the retailer.
Every Pizza Preacher review, comparison and guide should make its evidence, author and commercial relationship easy to understand.
Last reviewed
Accurate
Material facts need a named source or retained first-hand evidence.
Independent
Commission rates do not decide coverage, scores, rankings or verdicts.
Accountable
Substantial updates are dated and meaningful errors are corrected openly.
Evidence comes before confidence
Official product pages and manuals are the first sources for specifications. A manufacturer claim remains a manufacturer claim. It is not rewritten as a measured result.
First-person language is reserved for retained ownership, cooking or test notes. If a page relies on specifications and calculations instead, it is labelled accordingly. Missing evidence stays missing; it is not filled with a plausible number or borrowed experience.
Reviews, analysis and scores
A hands-on review can include an editorial score when the evidence and scoring basis are recorded. A specification-led product page can explain design choices and compare confirmed figures, but it cannot claim a personal result or carry a review rating.
Benefits and drawbacks are selected for their effect on the buying decision. Pizza Preacher does not add a token negative point to appear balanced, or recommend a product simply because it is new.
Commercial independence
Retailers and manufacturers do not approve copy before publication and cannot pay to change a verdict. Affiliate links are disclosed near commercial buttons. Where several approved sellers are available, price, availability and relevance can affect their presentation; commission does not affect the editorial conclusion.
Full details are set out in the affiliate disclosure.
Authorship and assisted publishing
Each public review has an accountable author. Software may help organise source data, check consistency or prepare drafts, but the published judgement remains the author’s responsibility. Automated tools must never create testing evidence, personal experience, prices or ratings.
Corrections and updates
Small spelling or formatting fixes may be made without a correction note. A factual change updates the page’s reviewed date. If an error could have changed a buying decision, the page should explain what was wrong, what replaced it and when the correction was made.
Prices, availability and product specifications change. Their source and check date should be visible wherever the timing matters.
How the standards become a score
The testing methodology explains the five review factors and the limits placed on unmeasured claims.
