Halmahera Pearl carries one byline throughout: Halmahera Pearl Editorial Desk. It is a description of how the work happens, not a title anyone holds. Pages get written, read back, and corrected by the desk as a whole.
The subjects we keep
Coverage is grouped around side-by-side comparisons, what things actually cost, how itineraries are put together and diving and snorkelling trips. When a page moves to someone else on the desk, they read it from the top before making a first edit.
What we do when a fact is unchecked
Anything on this site that depends on a published rule can go out of date without any announcement. That is why a checked figure is labelled as checked and an unchecked one is labelled as unchecked, rather than both being presented in the same confident voice.
Where this site stops
You will not find years of service, qualifications or professional titles claimed anywhere on this site. Claims of that kind need paperwork behind them, and we do not have it, so we do not make them. Nothing here replaces advice from the office or operator responsible for your case.
Where we have got something wrong, we would like to hear about it and fix it in place. You can reach the desk through our contact page.
