How we check every page

Nothing is published until two independent reviews have been settled against the sources and every number has been recomputed.

  1. Written from sources. Each lecture starts as a full document citing the specifications, textbooks and papers it teaches from.
  2. Every number computed. Each numerical answer on a page comes from a short script kept with the lecture, and the site will not build if a stated answer differs from it.
  3. Two independent reviews. Claude (Anthropic) and ChatGPT (OpenAI) each review the page separately, given the page and its sources but not each other's view. Both check every factual claim against a cited source, every equation and derivation, every answer, the level against the specification, the misconceptions and the English.
  4. Every finding settled by evidence. Each point either reviewer raises is settled by a quote from a source or by a calculation, and the page is corrected. Where the reviewers disagree, the evidence decides, and the review record says so.
  5. A lecturer's check, when done. A university lecturer in the subject checks the lecture; the page shows when, and until then says the check is pending.
  6. Checked again when it changes. A review covers one version of a page. Any change is reviewed again before it goes up, and corrections are listed on the page.

What the labels mean

Checked by two AI reviewers against cited sources
Both reviews are done, every finding is settled, and every number has been recomputed.
Lecturer reviewed
A university lecturer in the subject has checked it (named only if they agree).
Lecturer review pending
No person has checked it yet.
Corrected
Something was fixed after publication; the page's record says what and when.

What we do not claim

“Peer reviewed” means review by independent experts, usually for a journal, and none of this is that; we never use the phrase for our own pages. AI reviewers can miss things, which is why the sources are listed for you to check and why corrections are welcome.
