Studio Number Six is committed to publishing accurate, well-researched and clearly sourced articles and documentaries about the history of popular music. This policy explains the editorial standards that guide our work.
Studio Number Six exists to document the history of popular music through accurate, engaging and well-researched articles and documentaries. Our aim is to present complex stories clearly, fairly and with appropriate historical context, making music history accessible without sacrificing accuracy.
Every article and documentary begins with extensive research. We draw upon biographies, autobiographies, contemporary newspaper and magazine archives, interviews, academic publications, official records and other reputable primary and secondary sources wherever possible. We avoid relying solely on crowd-edited reference websites and always seek corroboration before presenting factual claims.
We take accuracy seriously. Despite careful research, mistakes can occasionally occur. When a factual error is identified and verified, we will correct it as quickly as possible. Significant corrections may also be acknowledged within the article where appropriate.
Studio Number Six operates independently. Editorial decisions are made solely on the basis of historical accuracy, public interest and the quality of available evidence. Commercial relationships, sponsorships or affiliate arrangements will never influence the conclusions presented in our editorial content.
Where practical, quotations are attributed to their original speakers or publications. Images, video clips and other third-party material are used in accordance with applicable copyright law, licensing agreements or recognised fair dealing and fair use principles where appropriate.
If you believe an article contains an error, or you have information that may improve our reporting, we welcome your feedback. Constructive corrections help us maintain the highest possible editorial standards.
