Editorial Policy

How we plan, write, review, and revise Selvora content — and the claims we deliberately avoid.

Who writes Selvora content

Selvora is produced by a small editorial team. Quizzes, result descriptions, guide hubs, and essays are written in-house. We draft, review, and revise each piece internally before it goes live, and we update content over time as feedback comes in and the topic evolves.

What we aim for

Our goal is to produce content that helps people reflect on themselves with a little more language and a little more kindness. The voice we try to maintain is warm but honest — a friend who has read widely, not a textbook or a horoscope that talks at you.

Claims we avoid

We deliberately avoid certain kinds of claims. If you see language that crosses these lines anywhere on Selvora, treat it as a bug and let us know.

  • Clinical or medical diagnoses of the reader. Our quizzes do not diagnose depression, anxiety, ADHD, personality disorders, or any other condition.
  • Certified IQ scores. Our IQ quiz is a gamified estimate written for entertainment; it is not comparable to instruments such as WAIS or Stanford–Binet.
  • Predictions about the future. Tarot readings and astrology content use traditional symbolic frameworks for reflection, not forecasting.
  • Romantic compatibility guarantees. No sign pairing, type pairing, or attachment-style pairing we describe is predictive in the statistical sense.
  • Anti-group stereotypes. We avoid language that punches down on a personality type, sign, or style by framing the type itself as pathological.

How we cite traditions

When we draw on a framework — MBTI, Enneagram, attachment theory, love languages, tarot symbolism, zodiac traditions — we reference it as a tradition or framework, not as proven science. Where a distinction matters (for example, the Big Five vs. MBTI), we try to name it honestly inside the text rather than relying on a reader already knowing the difference.

Review and revision

Quiz content is reviewed for internal consistency before publish. Long-form pieces are reviewed for tone, claim scope, and reading flow. We revise existing pages when:

  • A reader sends us a specific correction we can verify.
  • A framework’s public understanding evolves and our copy reads as outdated.
  • A result description has unintentionally reinforced a stereotype we would like to avoid.
  • Reader behaviour shows a systematic misunderstanding that a clearer page would resolve.

Advertising and editorial independence

Selvora shows Google AdSense ads on some pages. Ad placements are separated from editorial content: advertisers do not influence which quizzes we publish, what our result descriptions say, or which frameworks we cover. We do not accept paid placement inside quizzes or result copy.

Corrections policy

If you believe a page contains a factual error, an unfair generalisation, or an accidental over-claim, please email us. Substantive corrections will be made directly on the page; for significant revisions we add a short note at the bottom of the article noting the date and nature of the change.

Feedback channel

The single contact we guarantee to read is yuseong2099@gmail.com. See the Contact page for what we can and cannot help with.
