The Idaho Stack
Tracking Idaho’s technology economy
Editorial policy

Clear labels, careful claims, and corrections welcome.

The Idaho Stack is early-stage, but the trust rules start now: verify what can be verified, label contributed material, avoid fake authority, and correct mistakes.

Policy

Verification

Factual claims are linked to public sources when practical or flagged as requiring verification. Company-provided claims may be described as company claims unless independently confirmed.

Quotes and contributors

We do not invent quotes. Interview subjects and field-note contributors may review their own quotes or submitted text before publication.

Labels

Reporting, commentary, contributed posts, sponsored material, and directory listings should be distinguishable. Promotional material may be labeled, edited, or declined.

Anonymous tips

Anonymous tips can guide research, but anonymous accusations are not published without corroboration.

Corrections

Corrections can be sent to tips@idahostack.com. Substantive corrections should be noted on the affected page when appropriate.

Status labels

For infrastructure, startup, semiconductor, public-money, and energy coverage, The Idaho Stack tries to distinguish announced, funded, permitted, hiring, under construction, producing, verified in operation, delayed, or cancelled. Those labels matter because Idaho readers need to know what has actually changed.

Source preference

Primary sources are preferred: filings, meeting packets, budgets, datasets, permits, official statements, technical documents, and direct interviews. Secondary reporting can guide research, but we try to find the underlying document before repeating a claim.

Corrections

Corrections should name the page, sentence, source, and proposed fix. If a correction changes the meaning of a piece, the page should be updated and the correction noted where appropriate.
