## No formal peer review

Our active community of editors used tools such as the `Recentchanges` and
`Newpages` feeds to monitor new and changing content. However, Apertis is not
uniformly peer reviewed; while readers may correct errors or engage in casual
peer review, they have no legal duty to do so and thus all information read
here is without any implied warranty of fitness for any purpose or use
whatsoever. Even articles that have been vetted by informal peer review
processes may later have been edited inappropriately.
