Does an old Inquirer story that mentions you have a negative impact on your life?

Here’s how to let us know.

The Inquirer regularly receives requests from subjects of articles asking for the story to be removed because its continued visibility is causing them harm. The Up for Review policy was created to address these requests in a consistent, equitable manner. We’ve created a centralized system to ensure that decisions about reducing the visibility of older stories are made using the same criteria and process to evaluate each request.

The Inquirer is not intending to rewrite Philadelphia’s history but to provide a remedy for content that today we would not deem newsworthy, or would cover differently. This policy is not meant for factual corrections or current reporting. The main remedy we will offer is deindexing, which means the story will no longer appear in results on search engines like Google.

If you’d like us to review your story, fill out the form below. We’ll be in touch. Here are answers to some frequently asked questions about Up For Review.
