Editorial accountability
Public content review log
A dated record of material work affecting calculator accuracy, source transparency, editorial depth or the way CalcAussie explains its limitations. This is not a list of every visual or technical change.
Repaired pay, bill and energy calculators released
Published Pay Period, Bill Split, Gas Bill and Peak vs Off-Peak after the 3 November Search Console review showed every page restored on 15 October was appearing in search again. Each was repaired before release so the page delivers what it describes: projected pay dates and 26 or 27 fortnightly pays a year; bill splits by shares that add up to the cent; cubic-metre gas readings and an optional GST adjustment; and time-of-use comparisons with shoulder rates and each plan's supply charge. All four remain outside the advertising allow-list.
Shared household costs and financial year review
Extended the Rent Split calculator from three to between two and six housemates, added rent quoted weekly, fortnightly or monthly, up to three shared bills with their own periods such as quarterly electricity, an even or same-as-rent bill split, and weekly, fortnightly and monthly amounts that each add up to the cent. Added the number of days in the financial year, the day number and the financial-year quarter to the Financial Year calculator, with a FAQ on how many days the 2025–26 year has. Both pages remain outside the advertising allow-list.
Weighted grade calculator expansion
Expanded the Weighted Grade calculator from three to eight assessments, added the weighting entered, the marks earned toward the final grade and a per-assessment contribution table, rejected scores and weightings outside 0% to 100%, and flagged scores entered without a weighting so they are not silently ignored.
Weekly timesheet rebuild and search snippet review
Rebuilt the Timesheet Hours page as a Monday-to-Sunday weekly timesheet with exact start and finish times, overnight shifts, unpaid breaks, a daily breakdown and ordinary-time gross pay, replacing decimal clock inputs such as 9.5 for 9:30. Rewrote search titles and descriptions for high-impression pages so each states exactly what the calculator shows, including the High Distinction to Fail bands on the percentage-to-grade calculator. The timesheet is outside the advertising allow-list.
Savings and household recovery batch
Restored Holiday Savings, Christmas Savings Plan, Grocery Budget, Laundry Cost and Months Between Dates after Search Console evidence showed demand for their retired URLs. Made the holiday saving frequency drive the result; added whole-number checks and a fortnight-rounding note to the Christmas plan; rebuilt the grocery budget around adults, children and household items and removed an unsourced spending range; rebuilt the laundry calculator to cost each wash and dryer load from energy, water and detergent using Energy Rating label guidance; fixed month-end date arithmetic that could produce negative days; and kept all five pages outside the advertising allow-list.
Time and pay helper recovery batch
Restored Shift Length, Hours and Minutes, Decimal Hours Converter and Working Hours Between Dates after Search Console evidence showed demand for their retired URLs. Replaced half-hour shift time menus with exact hour and minute inputs; rejected breaks as long as the shift; fixed decimal conversions that could show 60 minutes; showed negative time differences instead of zero; added whole-number and range checks, Australian-date defaults and a weekday public-holiday check; cited Fair Work guidance on the 38-hour week and public holidays; and kept all four pages outside the advertising allow-list.
Dates, conversions and attendance recovery batch
Restored Attendance Percentage, Days Between Dates, Temperature Converter, Speed Converter and Volume Converter after Search Console evidence showed demand for their retired URLs. Corrected the attendance allowance so it can never exceed the classes remaining and clearly reports an unreachable minimum; added whole-number checks; added an option to count both dates; rejected temperatures below absolute zero and negative speeds or volumes; replaced internal unit codes with readable units; added the 250 mL Australian metric cup; and kept all five pages outside the advertising allow-list.
Live-search click recovery batch
Restored Leave Accrual, Reverse Percentage, Heart Rate Zones, Flight Arrival Time and Accommodation Cost after Search Console evidence showed demand for their retired URLs. Rechecked each formula, input validation, worked example, explanation and limitation; added current Australian employment and exercise-intensity sources where external guidance applies; corrected travel-time and whole-count inputs; and kept all five pages outside the advertising allow-list.
Search-traffic recovery and advertising separation
Separated public search eligibility from advertising eligibility, then restored thirteen reviewed calculators with proven search demand. The second recovery group covers current search impressions for pool fill time, car servicing budgets, weeks between dates, road-trip fuel, percentages, final-grade planning, download time and rounding. Every restored page remains ad-free, while the original twenty-page advertising allow-list is unchanged. Duplicate Exam Score and Trip Cost URLs permanently redirect to their stronger equivalents.
Whole-site calculator and publication audit
Rechecked the public collection page by page and narrowed it to twenty Australian money-and-cost calculators and twelve directly supporting guides. Generic utilities and draft guides outside that focus are no longer public. The audit also corrected tax, HELP, mortgage, rounding, validation, unit and description mismatches.
Editorial-depth and quality release
Added sixteen substantial Australian decision guides, expanded the knowledge centre to twenty guides, completed every category hub, added visible editorial responsibility and connected calculator pages to the public review process.
Priority search-page and source review
Improved current top search pages, replaced the inactive support address, corrected calculator hydration behaviour and strengthened official-source links and Australian search explanations.
Calculator explanation review
Expanded selected calculator descriptions, page titles and explanatory sections while preserving calculator purpose and user intent.
Release 01 calculator build
Added fifty calculators with formula, validation, accessibility and production checks. These pages were later placed behind the stricter individual publication review introduced in September.
2026–27 financial-year settings
Applied the current financial-year labels and central Australian rate configuration used by tax, HELP and super-related calculators.
What a recorded review means
A recorded review means the affected method, Australian terminology, material assumptions, source links and visible limitations were considered together. It does not turn a general calculator into personal advice or guarantee that a government rule, provider fee or personal circumstance will remain unchanged.
Corrections can be reported through the feedback page. The editorial policy explains how material issues are prioritised.
