## Summary

Keviambal Vidal-Langlois, president of Noukaz, a property portal in Mauritius (three people), describes her attempt to have her site cited as a source by Grokipedia, the encyclopaedia generated by Grok. A first request to add a source, at the end of August, left no trace, and the page was regenerated citing competitors but not Noukaz. A second attempt, at the end of September, consisted not in asking for a citation but in correcting a methodological error in the existing text (the use of the mean rather than the median in a property market with extreme values), backed by sourced figures. This correction was taken up almost word for word, and Noukaz's site is now cited among the page's sources. The author draws a general lesson for companies that want to appear in generative AI answers: offer a verifiable correction rather than a request for addition.
