Editorial policy

How content is produced

Content on Remarriage Guide is AI-assisted and human-edited. Drafts are produced with the help of AI tools, then reviewed, fact-checked, and edited by our editorial team before publication. Bylines are editorial pseudonyms of that team; we never invent professional credentials.

Bylines and pen names

Pages here are signed Owen Pardoe (Editor · remarried, stepparent). That is a pen name for the editorial team of this site, and it is named as one on the about page rather than in small print. A byline here means exactly one thing: somebody is answerable for the page and can be written to about it. It is not a claim of qualifications. We do not attach degrees, licences or professional titles — therapist, counsellor, coach, mediator, paralegal — to an editorial pen name, and we never attribute a quotation to a person who did not publish it. There are no interviews on this site.

The portrait that runs with this byline is an illustration generated with an AI tool, and it carries a visible label saying so wherever it appears. It is not a photograph of a living person and makes no claim about who anybody is. The AI disclosure runs with the byline rather than behind it: drafts are produced with AI tools against an editorial brief, a person edits and is answerable for every claim that survives, and nothing is published that a person has not read end to end.

Sourcing & statistics

Every statistic we publish is verified against a primary source (the original study, government data, or the company's own reporting) and named in the same sentence it appears. The full list lives on our sources page and statistics page. Numbers we cannot trace to a primary source do not get published.

Corrections

Found an error? Email hello@remarriageguide.com. We correct factual errors within a week, note the correction on the affected page, and update the page's modified date honestly — it only changes when the content substantively changes.

Ownership & funding

AI transparency

We label AI-generated illustrations, allow AI crawlers to read this site (see robots.txt and llms.txt), and welcome citation of our work with attribution and a link.
