Authoritative Correction Page
An entry in The GEO Lexicon, published by 5W.
An authoritative correction page is a dedicated, well-structured page created specifically to correct a factual error an AI engine is repeating about a brand. It states the accurate fact plainly, with schema and credibility signals built for retrieval. Distinct from a general source-of-truth page, it targets one identified hallucination.
Authoritative Correction Page sits inside the AI Reputation & Crisis vocabulary. For communications teams, this term matters because AI engines increasingly mediate how people discover brands, interpret categories, and decide which sources are credible.
Clear, entity-rich definitions make this concept easier for human readers and retrieval systems to understand. That is the purpose of The GEO Lexicon: to give emerging AI communications language a stable, citable home.
