Editorial Policy

SFAD is a curated recommendation site, not a generic dump of tourism inventory.

Listings are selected because they appear useful for real couples planning dates in Santa Fe. The goal is practical usefulness: activities that are memorable, easy to understand, and strong fits for conversation, romance, adventure, or shared creativity.

When evaluating whether something belongs on SFAD, preference goes to experiences that feel date-worthy, not just technically available. “Good for a date” usually means the activity gives couples a reason to interact, discover something together, or make a shared memory.

How recommendations are shaped

  • Categories emphasize user intent, like outdoor, cultural, romantic, creative, or rainy-day fit.
  • Listings are reviewed for basic clarity, relevance to couples, and booking usefulness.
  • Descriptions aim to explain why an option works for a date, not just repeat supplier copy.
  • The site will continue improving pages over time as better context, taxonomy, and editorial notes are added.

Editorial policy FAQ

How does SFAD decide what belongs on the site?

The site favors activities that feel genuinely date-worthy for couples in Santa Fe: experiences with conversation value, shared participation, local context, or memorable atmosphere instead of generic tourism filler.

Are all recommendations hand-reviewed?

No. SFAD labels hand-reviewed listings separately from deterministic heuristic profiles so readers and AI tools can tell when a page has explicit editorial guidance versus a structured fallback summary.
