Update 1

Based on the interactions I've had with the community, and the feedback that I've received from friends, I've decided to add the following two features in the next version of candour.

  • Top 5 Misinformation
  • How to fact check

Top 5 Misinformation

I will be tagging each fact check document that I acquire with a location tag. Users can ask candour to give them the top 5 most popular articles of misinformation based on their geographical area. The popularity score will be calculated based on the number of times other users from their area have searched for it.

How to fact check

Asking candour 'how to fact check' or anything similar will tell users basic information about how fact checks should be conducted. It will also allow them to play a mini-game where candour shows them content and asks them to fact check it. This would give people a realistic sense of their fact-checking ability and help them work on it.

The next version of candour will be published when the judging period of this hackathon ends. I'm open to all feedback, feel free to reach out to me on twitter -> @tabish_imran8
