Scope of the Project
The project analyzes over two million Community Notes and tracks how they are processed and displayed. It includes:
Search and filtering tools
Data visualization and statistics
Downloadable datasets
Analysis of both visible and non-visible notes
The project begins with raw data from X and transforms it into an accessible and interactive platform for analysis.
Significance (Economics + DH)
From an economic perspective, misinformation affects market behavior, consumer confidence, and public policy decisions. By analyzing misinformation trends, the project contributes to understanding how information impacts economic systems.
From a DH perspective, the project is significant because it uses large-scale digital data to analyze cultural behavior, preserves records of online moderation, and makes that data accessible to the public. This supports the DH goals of analyzing, preserving, and sharing cultural data.
Goal 1: Increase Transparency in Misinformation Moderation
Audience: Researchers and the general public
The project aims to reveal how Community Notes function, including which notes are shown or hidden.
DH Connection: Sharing cultural data
Goal 2: Enable Data-Driven Analysis of Misinformation
Audience: Academics and policymakers
The project allows users to analyze trends in misinformation using large datasets.
DH Connection: Analyzing and interpreting cultural data
Goal 3: Preserve Records of Digital Moderation
Audience: Future researchers and institutions
The project stores and documents moderation data for long-term use.
DH Connection: Preserving cultural data
Documentation Assessment
The project demonstrates strong documentation by clearly organizing its goals and aligning them with accessible data and tools, making it easier for users to understand and reuse the information.
