Editorial & rights policy

Useful, playable, and
honest about limits.

Purpose

Each learning page should answer a real beginner question, provide a practical exercise, identify important limitations, and connect the explanation to something the learner can hear or play.

Preparation and checking

Terminology and note relationships are checked against the interactive instrument before publication. Raga pages name a visible reference, distinguish a beginner outline from a complete performance grammar, and state when teaching traditions may differ. Where authorities disagree, the page should avoid presenting one convention as universal. We do not invent credentials or imply specialist review that has not occurred.

Corrections

Correction reports should name the page, quote or describe the issue, and offer a reason or source. Material changes are reviewed against the keyboard and reflected in the revision date. Prepare a correction report.

Song, notation, and recording rights

The preferred library consists of original exercises, public-domain material, traditional material whose status has been checked, and content used with permission. Each playable melody category states its rights scope. Modern-song lyrics, complete unlicensed transcriptions, and third-party recordings are not published merely because they are available elsewhere.

Removal requests

A rights holder can request review or removal by identifying the protected work, the page, their relationship to the work, and a reliable contact method. Clearly supported concerns should be handled promptly. The rights-review form explains the current public reporting channel and its privacy limits.

Product claims

Synthesized tones are described as synthesized or inspired by an instrument rather than as recorded samples. Pitch suggestions are practice aids, not medical, vocal-health, or professional assessment.
