Versions, corrections and withdrawals

How records change over time, and what happens when something is wrong.

Versioning

Authors can post new versions of any record. Every version keeps its own DOI and remains available; a concept DOI always resolves to the latest version. Each new version must include a short note describing what changed.

Corrections

Errors are corrected by posting a new version. Minor metadata fixes may be applied in place with a version note.

Withdrawals

A record can be withdrawn by its authors, or by AEX CONTINUUM where findings are unreliable because of misconduct or serious error, or where the deposit infringes rights. The record stays online as a tombstone page with the reason, so that existing citations still resolve.
