How we verify and analyze news
- We look for the primary source: the organizer, federation, league, company or research organization.
- We separate confirmed facts from editorial conclusions and Russian context.
- We double-check dates, figures, venues and regulations; we do not present rumors as facts.
- We update the material when new confirmed information appears after publication.
