These are the standards Dhimahi Talks intends to follow. We are introducing them step by step; the status column says where each one stands today.
Principles
| Principle | Our commitment | Status today |
|---|---|---|
| Source-first | We aim to base every explainer on sources we can name: books, papers, official data and archives. | Being introduced. Few of our videos list sources yet. |
| Cite openly | Sources will be listed in the research note and, where possible, in the YouTube description. | Starting with our first research notes. |
| Fact, interpretation, tradition | We will separate what is documented, what is interpretation, and what comes from tradition or belief, and label each. | Applies to new notes. |
| Corrections | When we get something wrong, we will correct it and say so on the page, with the date. | Policy published. No corrections logged yet. |
| Transparent method | Each note will say how we approached the question and what we could not verify. | Applies to new notes. |
| Attribution | Talks, music and clips by others are credited to their creators and never presented as ours. | Applied in the channel archive. |
| Independence | We are an independent organisation. We will disclose any partnership or support if it ever exists. | No partnerships. |
Corrections
If a research note or explainer contains an error, we will correct the note and add a dated entry to its corrections list explaining what changed. We will not silently edit published conclusions.
Reporting an error
Email us at dhimahitalks@gmail.com with the video or page and what you think is wrong, or leave a comment on the related video on our YouTube channel (opens in a new tab).
Belief and historical record
Some of our explainers discuss ideas from Indian wisdom traditions. When we do, we will say whether a statement is documented history, an interpretation, or part of a tradition or belief, so that the two are never confused.
