Poynter: Fact-checkers are among the top sources for X’s Community Notes, study reveals. “When Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced the end of the third-party fact-checking program on his company’s platforms, he said he would ‘get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with Community Notes, similar to X.’ But a new study shows that fact-checkers remain an essential part of X’s program, […]

The first couple of #CommunityNotes on this #tweet are unhelpful to the point of probably being counter productive?

That #infoGraphic shows the number of death in the vaccine and placebo groups are identical to within rounding error, THEREFORE there are no vaccine-related deaths.

After they change it to open label, there's no deaths in the placebo group, probably because almost all of them took the #vaccine when offered?

I also checked that #HIV rate - that's half the background rate per year for the #USA

Please rate or write some #twitter #CommunityNotes on this #climate denial rubbish from #OneNation senator #MalcolmRoberts

#CommunityNotes :birdsite: twitter.com/i/birdwatch/t/1559 Link goes directly to the community notes, which are currently all stuck on "Needs more ratings - Not shown on Twitter"

#Tweet :birdsite: twitter.com/MRobertsQLD/status Link goes to Mal's tweet in the usual twitter interface.

I am not sure if the ratings count if you have not signed up for #CommunityNotes or have not been accepted yet … but it is worth a try?

And you can sign up via the "join" button on that page.

If the first link doesn't work (or you don't trust my links) you can also sign up for #CommunityNotes via the link in the pinned tweet on their official page :birdsite: twitter.com/CommunityNotes

Unfortunately there seems to be a long waiting list.

You can follow the @CommunityNotes twitter page Mastodon via a few different mirror bots. These are unofficial mirrors, they don't send any comments or likes back to twitter. But a lot of instance admins block these twitter mirror bots because they create too much traffic, or cause confusion by being mistaken for profiles of people who are also here on Mastodon.

Can anyone identity what these videos actually are?

Obviously his central is but I'm curious about what the images actually are.

Particularly the jet spray? it looks like too much for a crop duster but not enough for fire fighting? Are they testing a maybe?

If notes get rated as "Helpful" they are displayed under

"Helpful" ratings ALSO mean that author is able to write more notes on more tweets

"Unhelpful" ratings hide that note from further ratings and reduce how many other notes that author can write.

So ratings on notes don't just affect that note, they create a feedback loop of more or fewer notes like that.

Currently issues and science are the areas going worst…

Can we get some more / better on related tweets please? :birdsite:

e.g. twitter.com/i/communitynotes/t

tweet twitter.com/_ClimateCraze/stat

To be honest, I can't fathom whether that guy is arguing with or for 97% … so possibly not a great example

but if you are still on join twitter.com/CommunityNotes

pretty much every related fact check is stuck on "Needs more ratings - Not shown on Twitter"

Use to explain the bloody obvious to the willfully ignorant twitter.com/i/birdwatch/t/1676

…but avoid "argumentative or biased language" (to make it through the rating system)

Link to the tweet incase the link doesn't work twitter.com/target2016/status/

today in

blog vs Cell paper

twitter.com/SwipeWright/status

twitter.com/i/birdwatch/t/1658

That second URL works even if you're not signed up to community notes, but you do need to be logged in to twitter.

but if your still spending any time on - please sign up to Community Notes … please…

there's a link in the birdwatch URL if you cock "join" but here's an alternative twitter.com/CommunityNotes/sta

@EricCarroll

I'm trying to get a diverse array of people from the #CovidResistance to join twitter's crowd sourced fact checking system #CommunityNotes FKA #BirdWatch :birdsite:

I've written a few other posts on this with hashtags #CommunityNotes #TwitterCommunityNotes #CommunityNotesRequests

Can some diverse non-morons please join Twitter's crowdsourced fact checking #CommunityNotes FKA #BirdWatch

Currently it seems inaccurately guessed trivia has broad appeal, but not actual fact checking!

Half arsed "NASA says its a sphere" checks on flat earth tweets are the current standard.

None of my #CommunityNotes about science or medical misinformation are showing. They all say:

"Needs more ratings · Not shown on Twitter" communitynotes.twitter.com/gui

Even if you don't have the time or the spoons to write anything, you can rate things others have written to help informative notes get displayed to people on the #BirdSite

Most annoyingly, I just noticed my ONLY #CommunityNote currently showing on #twitter is one that in retrospect i think might be wrong, and is also very trivial. It's about tomatoes price marked in £ and the tweet says they're from Spain, i suggested they might be in #Gibraltar 🇬🇮 … but now i think that tweet was probably just a dumb joke.

please help… twitter.com/i/flow/join-birdwa
