This repository is a place for us to transparently host our content, algorithms, and share updates about the program.
The folder /sourcecode holds the open-source code powering Community Notes under the hood.
The folder /documentation holds the Markdown content that is used to generate our documentation website.
Here you can also find our research paper.
Community Notes aims to create a better informed world, by empowering people on Twitter to add helpful notes to Tweets that might be misleading.
We're building it in the open, with the public’s input, and we’re taking significant steps to make Community Notes transparent.
Our goal is to expand Community Notes globally. We want anyone to be able to participate and know that having contributors with different points of view is essential to Community Notes helpfully addressing misinformation.
As there are important nuances in each market, we’ll expand the contributor base country-by-country. We’ll add contributors from a first new country soon.
We welcome Pull Requests with fixes or improvements to our ranking source code as well as the documentation content.
You can also talk directly with the team building Community Notes on Twitter, at @CommunityNotes.
The markdown files in this repo are the source of truth for the content in our documentation website (aka "Community Notes Guide"). They are always updated here first, then ingested by Twitter's internal tools, translated, and published in communitynotes.twitter.com/guide.
The algorithm that powers Community Notes can be found on the sourcecode folder, and instructions on how to use it can be found in the Guide.
All notes, ratings, and contributor data are publicly available and published daily here. Instructions on how to use them can be found in the Community Notes Guide.
We've published a paper that details the research, analysis and outcomes that informed the program's development and helped us understand its performance. You can find it here.
