Playoffs Wiki Editorial Policy

Last updated: September 17, 2026

The Playoffs Wiki editorial policy explains how we source, check, and update every bracket, schedule, score, and broadcast detail on the site. Accuracy comes first on every page we publish.

Where Our Playoff Data Comes From

  • Live scores, standings, and schedules come from a licensed sports data feed and refresh automatically during games.
  • Dates, formats, and rules are checked against official league sources: NFL.com, NBA.com, NHL.com, MLB.com, CFL.ca, and CollegeFootballPlayoff.com.
  • TV and streaming details are confirmed against announcements from the networks that hold the rights.
  • We never publish rumors or unconfirmed leaks as fact.

How We Review and Update Pages

Playoff pages change fast. Seeds lock in, games get flexed, and start times move. We review our hubs throughout each postseason and update a page as soon as a change is official. All times are shown in Eastern Time unless a page says otherwise.

Automated Content and Human Review

Some text on Playoffs Wiki, such as live intros, game summaries, and FAQ answers, is generated from the data feed so it stays current in real time. Our editor writes the page structure and templates, and reviews automated content for accuracy and clarity. When data and an official source disagree, the official source wins.

Corrections Policy

If we get something wrong, we fix it quickly. Send the page link, the error, and a source if you have one to joannortiz07@gmail.com or use our Contact page. Confirmed errors are corrected, usually within one business day during the playoffs.

Independence and Advertising

Playoffs Wiki is independent and is not affiliated with any league, team, or broadcaster. The site may show ads to cover running costs. Advertisers have no say in what we publish, and ads are always kept separate from editorial content.

Who Is Responsible

Playoffs Wiki is published by Md Abdullah Al Muktadir, who oversees all content on the site. Learn more on our About page.
