Editorial workflow

Editorial process

This is the working checklist used to review calculators, supporting guides, formula notes, source links, and reader corrections. It documents the checks performed and does not substitute for an individual author byline.

What is checked before publication

The publishing review keeps the topic scope narrow, checks that calculators and guides agree with each other, and records material updates before they go live.

  • Reviewing formulas and calculator wording for consistency.
  • Checking that a guide actually answers the decision behind the query, not just the headline.
  • Refreshing update dates when the page changes materially.
  • Handling correction requests, broken links, and reader feedback.

Why the site keeps a narrow subject area

MyCalcVault focuses on a small number of recurring consumer finance questions rather than publishing across every money topic. That is a deliberate editorial choice. A narrower scope makes it easier to keep pages internally consistent and genuinely useful.

It also helps readers understand what the site is and is not trying to cover. Broad sites often end up feeling generic. Narrow sites can build more trust when they stay inside their lane.

How pages are reviewed before publication

MyCalcVault pre-publication review checks
Review area What is checked
Math and logic Whether calculator outputs are consistent with the intended formula and page explanation.
Clarity Whether the page explains what is included, excluded, and what decision the tool is actually good for.
Internal linking Whether the page sends the reader to a sensible next step instead of leaving them at a dead end.
Trust signals Whether the page points clearly to the relevant about, methodology, contact, and policy pages.

Limits of an editorial review

A byline naming Bojan Marinkovic identifies the person accountable for that page's authorship and review. It means the page has passed the site's checks for clarity, internal consistency, and topic fit; it does not make the page a substitute for licensed professional advice tailored to an individual's full situation.

How source checks work

When a page explains common consumer finance costs or terms, the desk checks the wording against official or education-focused references where possible. Source links are not used as decoration; they help readers verify terms, compare assumptions, and spot what a calculator cannot know about their situation.

The current reference list is available on the trusted sources page.

How to request a correction

If you spot a formula issue, outdated statement, unclear phrase, or broken link, email the site through the contact address and include the page URL plus a short description of what seems wrong. Calculation concerns are easiest to review when you also include the inputs you used.
