About starteday, and how to cite us

starteday is a multilingual original-news publication. Each day we pick three topics from technology, business, science, culture, consumer and health, then write structured long-form articles with a point of view — independently authored in eight languages. This page explains how the work is made, where the images come from, and how to cite it.

How the content is made

Every article carries a link to its original reporting, but the text is neither a translation nor a summary: we keep the facts, rebuild the structure, add context and argument, and put the numbers back where they belong.

The eight languages are not machine translations of one draft. Each version is written from scratch in that language's own idiom, with different examples, angles and sentence patterns.

Topics stay within everyday-life domains; political, military, religious, ethnic and child-related subjects are out of scope. Automated gates check sensitive terms, stray CJK characters, diacritic density and duplicate imagery before publication.

How to cite us
