The standard we hold ourselves to
Publishing about mobile DJ and event services without saying how you work is asking for trust you have not earned. This is how we work.
Standards
How Covert Ops DJs chooses topics, checks claims, names writers, dates articles and handles corrections and commercial links.
Publishing about mobile DJ and event services without saying how you work is asking for trust you have not earned. This is how we work.
The date on an article is the date it was published. When a change alters the advice, we update the modified date and say what changed. Cosmetic edits do not reset the date, because pretending a page is fresher than it is helps nobody.
Each piece is signed, and each signature is a link to everything else that person has written. A house byline would let a weak article hide; a real name does not.
Reo Castellan, Working club and wedding DJ. Reo plays more than a hundred events a year and hauls his own gear to every one of them. He reviews equipment the way he would warn a friend before a gig, not the way a press kit describes it.
Sable Marchetti, Former club booker and promoter. Sable spent eight years booking talent and negotiating contracts before switching to writing about the business side of gigging. She reads a contract before she reads a rider.
Dex Okafor, Producer and mix engineer. Dex builds sets and mixes tracks for a living, and writes about the technical side of DJing most beginner guides skip entirely.
Some links on this site are commercial. They never buy a rewrite of the surrounding paragraph.
We have never taken a criticism down because somebody asked, and the asking tends to tell readers more than the original complaint did.
A subject earns a page when somebody has asked about it twice, or when we went looking for the answer ourselves and came back empty handed.
Write to [email protected] with the page address and what is wrong. Factual errors are fixed quickly. If the correction changes the conclusion of a piece, we add a short note at the foot of the page rather than quietly editing it.
