Call us
A phone line for leaving a data-center correction or a source we should track. A gnome reads every message and drafts a change for a human to review.
The KDC feedback line is a phone number you can call to leave a short recorded message about a data-center correction or a source we should be tracking. It is a voicemail line, not a live conversation. No one picks up, and there is no bot to talk to on the call.
After you leave a message, a gnome reads the transcript and drafts a correction or a source entry. Nothing you say is published straight to the site. A person reviews the draft before any record changes.
Not live yet
The line is not switched on. When it goes live, the number will be printed here. For now the number is coming soon.
Access code
A public phone number costs us on every call and attracts junk, so the line is gated by an access code. If you have been given a code, enter it on your keypad when you call, then press the pound key. You get three tries. If none of them match, the line asks you to check the code and call back later.
If the mailbox is full
The line holds a limited number of messages each day. This cap keeps the running cost predictable. If the day’s mailbox is already full when you call, the line kindly asks you to try back tomorrow, and the call ends without recording.
Recordings and your privacy
Recordings are kept for 30 days and then deleted. We treat your phone number as private and mask it in our records. The message you leave becomes a draft that a human reviews before anything in the dataset changes.
Contribute in writing
You can send the same thing in writing. Open a data-correction or a source-suggestion issue on this project’s GitHub repository, and it lands in the same review queue as a phoned-in message.
