Editorial Policy
This page describes how content is created and maintained on wellerdavis.com to ensure accuracy, authenticity, and value for readers.
How Content is Created
Blog posts on wellerdavis.com are created through a hybrid human-AI process designed to combine efficiency with authenticity:
- Topic Selection: Weller Davis selects topics based on personal experience, ongoing experiments, and real-world projects
- Drafting: Content is drafted using Mneme AI, a custom system that incorporates Weller's voice, experience data, research, and specific measurements from actual projects
- Human Review: Every post is reviewed and edited by Weller Davis for accuracy, authenticity, and alignment with firsthand experience
- Publication: Final approval and publication by Weller Davis
Key Principle: AI assists with drafting and structure, but all content is based on Weller's real experiences, experiments, and data. Generic AI-generated advice is explicitly prohibited.
Commitment to Experience & Data
All blog posts must include:
- Firsthand experience from Weller's projects, experiments, or work
- Specific measurements, tools, and outcomes (not generic advice)
- Concrete artifacts: data tables, templates, case studies, or equipment lists
- Real timelines and conditions with dates when possible
- Exact tool/model specifications (e.g., "Raspberry Pi 4 8GB" not "a computer")
What This Means in Practice
When you read a post on wellerdavis.com, you can expect:
- Real data from actual experiments (e.g., "tracked for 6 weeks", "measured 23% improvement")
- Specific tools and versions used (e.g., "Home Assistant 2024.1 on Raspberry Pi 4")
- What worked AND what didn't work
- Actual costs, timelines, and effort required
- No generic "10 tips" lists without backing experience
Source Validation
Technical, scientific, and health claims are validated against authoritative sources before publication:
- Government and educational institutions (.gov, .edu domains)
- Peer-reviewed journals and research databases
- Official documentation from technology providers and manufacturers
- Industry standards bodies (W3C, IETF, IEEE, etc.)
All sources are cited inline or in a References section at the end of posts. Claims that cannot be validated are either removed or clearly marked as personal opinion.
Corrections & Updates
We value accuracy and welcome corrections. If you find an error or outdated information:
- Email: [email protected]
- Corrections are reviewed within 48 hours
- Significant updates are noted at the top of the post with a revision date
- Minor corrections (typos, formatting) are made without notation
Affiliate Links & Monetization
This site uses the following monetization methods:
- Google AdSense: Contextual advertising is displayed on blog posts (clearly labeled and compliant with Google's policies)
- Product Links: Links to products mentioned in experiments are provided for reader convenience (currently no affiliate relationships)

- Experience: All content is based on firsthand experience with specific measurements and outcomes
