Kotamon Guide Editorial and Evidence Policy
Our job is to help players while making uncertainty visible. We prefer a useful verification method over a confident invented answer.
Source hierarchy
Official developer, publisher, Steam, patch, and support material comes first. Directly observed gameplay with a named build comes next. Reviews and established publications add context. Community posts establish questions and candidate workarounds, not universal mechanics.
Demo and full-release boundary
Demo footage never establishes full-release balance, economy, locations, performance, save transfer, or final card data unless rechecked in the released build. Every patch-sensitive value should carry a version and check date.
Prices and locations
A single chance find is an observation, not a guaranteed spawn. An in-game displayed value is not a real-money market price. Averages require comparable conditions and multiple dated observations.
Originality and media
We write original explanations and diagrams. We do not copy guides, transcripts, maps, screenshots, card art, or thumbnails. Official embeds may be used only when they materially support a page.
Corrections
Material corrections are reviewed against the strongest available source and page dates are updated. Send the page URL, claim, build context, and evidence through Contact.
