How MarvelGossips decides what to publish, and how we label what we are not sure about.
Three tiers of certainty
- Confirmed — announced by Marvel, Disney, a studio, or stated on the record by a credited participant. Reported flat.
- Reported — carried by an established trade outlet but not officially confirmed. Always attributed, always hedged.
- Rumour — scooper chatter, forum claims, unverified set photos. Published only with an explicit credibility read and a statement of what confirmation would look like.
Reviews
Reviews carry a score and a point of view. We do not soften a verdict because a film is popular, and we do not manufacture contrarianism for traffic.
Rankings
Every ranking states its criteria before the list. A ranking without criteria is filler.
AI and sourcing
Every factual claim about comics is traceable to a published issue or run. First appearances and creator credits are checked before publication; where an exact issue cannot be verified we name the series and year only rather than guess.
Advertising and independence
Advertising is sold and served separately from editorial. No advertiser sees or influences coverage before publication.
