Editorial Guidelines
Our credibility is the product. These are the standards every page on GTA VI Guide is held to.
The four-status trust system
Every meaningful fact carries one of four confidence labels, each with a source:
- Confirmed by Rockstar — Stated or shown officially by Rockstar Games / Take-Two.
- Shown in trailer — Visible in an official trailer or screenshot, but not otherwise detailed by Rockstar.
- Rumored / Leaked — Reported via leaks or third parties; not confirmed by Rockstar.
- Speculative — Community analysis or expectation; no direct source.
We report leaks and rumors in our own words and clearly mark them as unconfirmed. We never present a leak as official.
Sourcing
Claims are backed by primary sources (Rockstar Games, Take-Two) wherever possible, or by reputable outlets otherwise. Sources are listed on the page. We do not host leaked footage or code.
Corrections & the changelog
When our confidence in a fact changes — a rumor is confirmed, a leak is debunked — we update the page and log the change publicly in our changelog, with the date and the source that moved it. If you spot an error, tell us and we'll fix it.
AI-assisted, human-curated
We use automation to research and draft quickly, but every page passes fail-closed gates: adversarial fact-checking against cited sources, a duplicate-content check, and a unique-value bar (thin pages are held back from search). Our editorial team owns these standards and is accountable for what's published. We never publish AI-generated imagery of Grand Theft Auto, and we never use fabricated author personas.
Structured-data note
We keep FAQ content on-page for readers and AI answer engines, but no longer rely on FAQ rich results (Google retired them in 2026). Our structured data emphasizes clear authorship, sourcing and freshness instead.
