Byline Policy & Editorial Attribution Standards
At ADV Today (advtoday.in), transparency in authorship is fundamental to building reader trust. Every published article clearly attributes responsibility to its creator.
Individual Bylines
Articles researched, investigated, or drafted by specific journalists, correspondents, or columnists carry the full name and profile link of the author. Each byline directs readers to the author’s bio, credentials, professional beats, and contact details.
News Desk Bylines
Reports compiled from official government press releases, regulatory circulars, wire briefings, or collaborative breaking developments are attributed to “ADV Today News Desk” or the specific subject desk (e.g., “ADV Today Sports Desk”).
Plagiarism & Generative Content
- Plagiarism is strictly prohibited across all desks.
- AI tools are utilized solely for formatting, proofreading, or data parsing under human editorial supervision. Factual claims, interviews, and ground reporting are authored and verified by human editors.
Guest Opinions & Freelance Columns
External opinion pieces or analysis authored by guest contributors carry explicit author disclosures, reflecting the independent viewpoint of the writer.
