Scorely newsroom

Who signs

"Redacción Scorely" is the newsroom's shared byline. When a person signs a story, their name will appear on it with a page of their own.

How a story is written

• We start from the data of the game or event (score, scorers, table, fixtures) that Scorely receives from ESPN.
• We gather at least two sources published by different outlets and cite them with links.
• The newsroom uses automated tools, including artificial intelligence, to organise the data and prepare the text. The final text has to pass the checks below; if it does not, it is not published.
• Each story is written for its edition, in British English with UK time.

Checks before publishing

• Headline, standfirst of up to 155 characters, dates, league, teams, category and byline required.
• Length: 350 to 700 words for match reports, previews and analysis; 250 to 700 for short news and transfer pieces.
• At least two sources from different domains.
• Copy check against the sources (repeated 8-word phrases).
• If a story has an image, its credit is required.
• One match report per game.
