If our policy demands that someone corrects errors about themselves by getting the correct information published in a secondary source first, that policy is broken.
It is doubly broken if the justification for this policy is that a secondary source would do fact-checking, when most secondary sources in this situation wouldn't.
Having conflict of interest rules prevent someone from correcting errors about himself is another broken policy.
