Korrektsuste

Korrektsuste is a term used in editing and quality-control discussions to denote the set of corrections applied to a document, dataset, or software between revisions. In practice, korrektsuste can include typographical fixes, factual corrections, formatting adjustments, and changes to improve clarity or consistency. The word appears in Estonian-language morphology as korrektsuste, a form that signals possession or description of “the corrections” within a larger text.

Origins and usage: The root korrektsus (correctness) or korrektsioon (correction) underpins the term, with korrektsuste functioning as a plural or descriptive noun phrase in professional contexts. In editorial workflows, teams speak of identifying, prioritizing, and implementing korrektsuste as part of the revision cycle. In data and software projects, korrektsuste are tracked in change logs or commit messages to maintain an audit trail and ensure traceability of improvements.

Contexts: Korrektsuste arise across publishing and journalism, academic editing, software development, and data curation. In each area, they serve to formalize the process of improvement and accountability, allowing contributors to review what changed, why, and when.
