At Tjwwal Online, we are committed to delivering the highest quality, evidence-based pet care information to our readers. This Editorial Policy outlines the standards, processes, and principles that govern how we create, review, and publish content on our website.
Tjwwal Online exists to bridge the gap between professional veterinary knowledge and the information pet owners need to make informed decisions about their pets' care. Our mission is to provide accurate, accessible, and actionable pet care guidance that is grounded in peer-reviewed science and clinical expertise.
Every piece of content we publish serves this mission. We do not produce content for entertainment value alone, nor do we chase trending topics at the expense of accuracy. Our goal is to be the most trusted resource for pet care information on the internet.
We believe that pet owners deserve the same standard of information that veterinary professionals rely on, translated into language that is clear, practical, and easy to follow. This belief drives everything we do.
Our content undergoes a rigorous multi-stage process before publication. Each article must pass through every stage before it is considered ready for our readers.
Before any writing begins, our team conducts thorough research using credible, authoritative sources. Our research process includes:
Every article must have a minimum of five credible sources identified before drafting begins. Sources must be from the last 10 years unless discussing historical data or established medical principles.
Content is written by credentialed professionals with relevant expertise in the subject matter. Our writers include veterinarians, certified animal nutritionists, certified animal behaviorists, and credentialed pet care professionals.
All writers must follow our style and quality guidelines, which include:
Once a draft is complete, it is assigned to at least one subject-matter expert for technical review. The expert reviewer assesses:
The expert reviewer may approve the content as-is, request revisions, or reject the content if fundamental issues are found. Articles requiring revision must pass expert review before advancing to the next stage.
After expert review, content undergoes a thorough editorial review by our editorial team. This review covers:
Our editorial team ensures that expert-reviewed content is presented in the most clear, engaging, and useful way for our readers.
Before publication, all content undergoes an independent fact-checking process. A separate team member who was not involved in the writing or expert review verifies:
Our fact-checking process is documented separately in our Fact-Checking Policy.
Publication is not the end of our content process. All Tjwwal Online articles are subject to regular review and updates to ensure they remain accurate, current, and useful. Our update schedule includes:
When an article is substantively updated, we revise the "Last updated" date and include a brief changelog at the end of the article detailing what was modified.
