Sources Policy

Original content

All articles published on Meridian Post are original works created by our editorial team. We do not republish third-party news articles, RSS feed content, or wire service copy.

Research materials

Writers consult publicly available reference sources when preparing explainers:

• Official government and regulatory publications
• International organisation documents (UN, WTO, etc.)
• Peer-reviewed research and academic textbooks
• Public data releases from statistical agencies

Facts are expressed in our own language. We do not reproduce proprietary text from paywalled or copyrighted sources.

Attribution

When an article references a specific report, dataset, or institution, we name the source in context. Individual articles may include a “Sources & References” section when direct links add value for readers. Absence of external links does not mean content was copied from elsewhere.

Attribution and outbound links

Articles may include a “Sources & References” section linking to official institutions, government portals, international organisations, and other authoritative public resources. These links help readers verify facts and explore topics further. We select references for relevance to the subject — not for promotional purposes.

Images

Hero images are sourced from licensed stock providers or placeholder services configured in our media pipeline. We respect photographer and licensor rights and display attribution when required by the licence.

Copyright

Meridian Post retains copyright in its original articles. Unauthorised reproduction of our text may infringe our rights. If you believe we have inadvertently used your copyrighted material, please contact us through our contact form with details so we can investigate promptly.

No news aggregation

We do not operate a news-aggregator model. We do not monitor RSS feeds to auto-publish summaries of breaking stories. This policy reduces copyright risk and keeps our catalogue focused on durable, educational content.
