Source & Citation Standards

At Brian Harman Golf, we commit to providing accurate and reliable information to our readers. Our editorial team maintains high standards for sourcing and citing all content, whether it covers golf news, interior design, or other topics. This page outlines our approach to ensuring the credibility of our articles.

Authoritative Sources

We prioritize sources widely recognized for their accuracy and expertise. For golf-related articles, this includes official PGA Tour statements, reputable sports news organizations, and direct quotes from professional golfers or their teams. For home and design content, we refer to accredited design associations, academic research on psychology and aesthetics, and established industry publications. Government reports, scientific journals, and expert interviews also serve as key references.

Citation Format

Our articles primarily use in-text hyperlinks to direct readers to original sources. These links appear immediately after the fact or statement they support, allowing for easy verification. When multiple sources are used for a broader topic, a “Sources” section may be included at the end of the article, listing all references clearly.

Source Verification

Before inclusion, all sources undergo a thorough verification process. Our editors cross-reference information with multiple independent sources to confirm accuracy. We evaluate the source’s reputation, any potential biases, and the timeliness of the data presented. Expert review may be sought for complex or specialized subjects.

Anonymous or Unnamed Sources

Brian Harman Golf generally avoids using anonymous or unnamed sources. Such sources are only considered in rare instances when the information is of significant public interest and cannot be obtained elsewhere. Any use of unnamed sources requires approval from senior editorial staff and must be accompanied by a clear explanation of why anonymity was granted.

Primary Over Secondary Sources

We prefer to cite primary sources whenever possible. Direct statements from Brian Harman, official PGA Tour announcements, or original research papers are valued over interpretations by other news outlets. While secondary sources can offer valuable context, we always endeavor to trace information back to its initial point of origin to minimize misinterpretation.

Reader Verification

Readers can verify our cited sources by clicking on the provided hyperlinks within articles. We encourage readers to review the original material for themselves. Should you have any questions about a source, please contact our editorial team at [email protected].

Handling Disputed Sources

If a reader disputes the accuracy or validity of a cited source, we take such concerns seriously. Please email [email protected] with details of your concern. Our team will review the claim promptly, re-examine the source, and make any necessary corrections or clarifications to the article. Transparency in our content is important.
