Nova Presswire Editorial Guidelines

1. Mission & Editorial Gravity

Nova Presswire serves as a stable orbit for press releases that are clear, credible, and newsworthy. Content must be objective and fact‑based, free of promotional warp drives and advertising hyperbole. Submissions with direct address (“you/I/we” outside of quoted speech) or exaggerated claims will be deflected.


2. Scientific Newsworthiness

Each release should have a clear event horizon — a definitive news angle such as:

  • Timely announcements (product launches, milestones, events)

  • Verifiable developments (studies, reports, organizational changes)

  • Expert insights into current topics

The headline must immediately convey the core news element.


3. Tone & Objectivity

Like light in a vacuum, writing should be unbiased and clean:

  • Objective voice in third person

  • Avoid hype flags: no CAPS for emphasis, no multiple exclamation points

  • Quotes must be attributed to authorized voices

  • Opinion vs. fact clearly distinguished and contextualized


4. Format & Structure

To maintain editorial stability and resonance:

  • Ideal length: 500–1,500 words for optimal distribution

  • Press releases must be plain text with no HTML tags or forced formatting

  • Functional links only; broken or offline URLs must be removed prior to submission

  • Include valid contact information: name, phone, and email


5. Content Requirements

Nova Presswire release submissions must:

  • Contain original content and not duplicate prior releases

  • Be accurate and verifiable (factual data, checked claims)

  • Avoid content that could harm, defame, or threaten individuals or groups

  • Avoid content designed to create fear, panic, or misinformation


6. Legal & Ethical Integrity

When referencing legal or sensitive matters:

  • Include verifiable case numbers and court identifiers

  • Provide explicit source citations for all legal or regulatory claims

  • Avoid content that could be libelous or infringe privacy


7. Prohibited Content

Nova Presswire will not distribute material that is:

  • Primarily commercial advertising

  • Spam or link stuffing beyond a reasonable density

  • Explicitly harmful, offensive, or discriminatory

  • Content with unverified health or unsafe claims

  • Promotions of illicit activity, gambling, or unsafe financial products


8. Editorial Review Process

All submissions enter a peer‑review‑like editorial check:

  • Content is evaluated for newsworthiness, objectivity, and compliance

  • Editors hold final discretion on publication eligibility

  • Submissions not meeting standards may be returned for revision or rejected


9. Modification & Compliance

Nova Presswire reserves the right to update or amend these guidelines at any time. Continued use of our service implies acceptance of the current guidelines.
