A Stack Overflow like Forum

[isyedaliraza]

We are living in the age of information. There is so much information around us but there is no single place where we can go and verify the authenticity of the information. My idea is to build a forum like Stack Overflow to evaluate the authenticity of claims, quotes, or statements.

Users can:

1. Post a statement or quote.
2. Others can vote on its authenticity (true/false, verified/unverified).
3. Provide references or reasoning for their vote.
4. Discussions are encouraged, with a structured format for scholarly or evidence-based input.

Use Cases:

1. Historical quote verification
2. Scientific claim discussions
3. Fact-checking viral content
4. Literature/authorship analysis

Looks like this project is going to be application level project not infrastructure level. Truly I have no idea, about that project.

We probably will not leave GitHub however another great idea appeared my mind. Syncing Github with our website. Then if people want to go there they do it there. Both options may be available. It's going to take long still it's great idea. Thanks for sharing. Let's see others opinions.

Great idea, Is the idea leaning into something like Quora @isyedaliraza

[isyedaliraza]

@JumaOchi yes you can say that because it's a forum like Quora or Stack Overflow. But our use case will be different we will focus more onto information validation/verification.

For example, let's say there is a scientific study that says drinking coffee is harmful for your health. Users can post this piece of information and other people can vote if this is true or not. They can debate on the authenticity of the information.

For me, this sounds like something we can do in the future, but not now, right now I guess sticking to Github would be best option.
