Methodology: How Guides Are Researched and Reviewed

Every guide and review on this site carries a status. This page explains what those statuses mean in practice, so you can judge for yourself how much weight to give any page.

Unverified by default

A guide or review is unverified until a human reviewer has checked the subject against its live state — live rules, live moderation, live content — and dated that evidence. Until then:

Classifications (SFW/mixed/explicit) are editorial guesses, labeled as such.
Audience notes describe apparent purpose, not confirmed policy.
No subscriber counts, activity levels, or other statistics are stated, because none have been collected with a date.

You will see this rendered as Status: unverified and Last reviewed: UNVERIFIED on every affected page. That is not a placeholder waiting to be filled by automation; it is the actual current state.

Manual verification only

Verification is a human step with a date attached. There is no automated pipeline that flips a community from unverified to verified. When verification happens, the page records who checked, what they saw, and when — and the self-promotion policy note is updated from verify to whatever the live rules actually say.

No fabricated claims

The editorial rules are simple: if we have not observed it with a date, we do not state it as fact. Hedged language (“appears to be,” “seems to serve”) marks inference; anything stated flatly is either directly observable or sourced to a linked organization’s own site.

No promotion, ever

Nothing on this site posts, messages, upvotes, or otherwise acts toward any community or platform it writes about. Every catalog entry’s self-promotion policy is pinned to verify — meaning no outreach until a human confirms the live rules permit it. For most entries, the practical answer is that no promotion should ever happen.

The public Resources section

The Resources section is held to a stricter standard than the editorial side: it is public (no age confirmation), carries no advertising or tracking, links only to independent organizations’ own sites, and makes no claims about any community at all. Its pages are reviewed on their own schedule and carry their own Last reviewed dates.

Resources

This section exists for readers who need information, not entertainment. It is public: no age confirmation, no advertising, no tracking, and no monetization of any kind.

What you will find here

Identity & Coming Out — references from established organizations, for people exploring identity and for the people around them.
Online Safety — practical basics for staying safe when sharing personal content or navigating online spaces.
Sexual Health & Consent — plain-language consent and health basics, with links to public-health references.
Crisis Support — contact points for immediate support, with a note on how to use them.

What this section is not

It is not medical, legal, or professional advice. It does not host community discussion, and it does not link to any community or platform for promotional purposes. External links point to independent organizations’ own sites so you can verify everything directly with them.

The Methodology page explains how the editorial side of this site researches and reviews its guides.
