Editorial Policy

These examples are wording suggestions to adapt to your own relationship. Some have been drafted or revised with AI assistance. Research, automated checks, and human editorial review are different steps.

Review principles

A content review should check natural language, the relationship between sender and recipient, privacy, emotional pressure, and promises the sender may not be able to keep. An automated check cannot decide whether a message feels right to a particular person.

Sensitive-page checks

Content about serious illness, surgery, hospital stays, chronic illness, faith, and workplace relationships needs particular care. A reviewer should consider privacy, humor, beliefs, and any assumption about recovery or returning to work.

Medical boundary

Quick Get Well is not a medical site, and pages are not clinician reviewed. The guidance is limited to wording, tone, and message examples.

Sources and originality

Reference material can inform communication principles and help identify real questions. A source's presence online does not establish that it was written by a person or that every example suits every situation. Our example messages are not quotations from or endorsements by those sources.

Current review status

A completed human editorial review is not documented for this version. AI-assisted review and software tests must not be presented as human approval. Check any names, shared memories, offers of help, or business arrangements before using an example.

Corrections

When a correction affects sensitivity, accuracy of wording guidance, accessibility, or broken links, it is prioritized for review. Readers can send concerns through the Contact page.

Updates

Each article shows its own last updated date. We revise that date when its message examples or wording guidance change substantially.
