Guidelines for community voting and participation
Community Rules
The community voting system is designed to provide an independent trust signal alongside the AI-generated credibility scores. To maintain the integrity of this system, we ask all participants to follow these guidelines.
Voting Guidelines
Vote honestly: Cast your vote based on your genuine assessment of the story’s credibility. Consider the sources cited, the claims made, and your own knowledge of the subject.
One vote per story: The system allows one vote per person per article. Votes are tracked anonymously using hashed identifiers to prevent duplicate voting while protecting privacy.
No manipulation: Coordinated voting campaigns, vote brigading, bot voting, or any attempt to artificially influence vote counts is prohibited and will result in vote invalidation.
What Votes Mean
True: You believe the article accurately represents verifiable facts and the story is substantially correct.
Unsure: You are uncertain about the accuracy of the claims or feel there is insufficient evidence to make a determination.
False: You believe the article contains significant inaccuracies or the central claims are not supported by evidence.
Community Standards
Voting is anonymous and no personal data is stored beyond a hashed identifier. Vote data is retained for a configurable period (default 90 days) and then automatically purged.
