Fatabyyano commits to following 10 rules related to its transparency policy
Fatabyyano commits to fact-check Arabic content to all the Arabs without regardless of any difference
:We follow our methodology and Fact-checking transparency policy in responding to every claim
We divide the Fact-checking Explanatory Article into 2 main parts
:The FIRST is the claim part which contains the exact claim transcript without our editing or a summary of the claims if the claim investigated is a long video
:Example of summary
– Then take a screenshot of the claim from the most popular or the most engaging post that shared the claim, then we cite this page name and description when the claim was published and How much engagement it got until the moment of writing the claim and we write this date. then we describe the engagement or how much spread mainly by saying how many shares it got and how many views if it was a video this single claim post got
Then, we search social media platforms for similar claim posts or by using tools like CrowdTangle or by using Google or Yandex Search Engines and cite those in our Fact-checking article for better clarify how widely spread this claim, ( to cover most of claim links on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Youtube..etc ) and also it helps in rating the claims for Facebook recently
:example showing this
Currently, In most of our Fact-checking articles, we using different archiving websites like Perma.cc or https://archive.fo/ to archive the main source of the claim, as may the claim publisher will remove the claim whatever it was a ( post, video, photo..etc ) we keep a copy of it to keep a copy of the video or the post to ensure that anyone read our review article can review the original content of the main claim, in addition to that we also archive the main evidence in most of our Fact-checking articles, especially if we suspect it may be deleted at any time
:example showing this here
the Second part is the rating part where we describe the evidence we found and how we reached the rating of this claim
we follow our methodology and transparency policy to ensure that anyone can find the sources we used and repeat our process to ensure its validity
we use Google search tools as our main tool for fact-checking. we use google reverse image search to find the source of images mainly as well as videos we might encounter
:example
we use Google search to find sources related to the post we are investigating by trying different keywords that we think will lead us to more information about the post we investigate. we tend to use every possible clue in the post we investigate and use it in our search to make sure we reach the sources that are related to the post. we also use what we find from our search to further improve the keywords when looking for more sources and information.
:example
if the post is attributed to a person or institute, we make sure to try and contact the person or the institute DIRECTLY to fact check they say that or not and whether they have any comment about the post we investigate and make sure to publish what they say in our post and on our website article about the post
Example of Fatabyyano Team Contact the owner of an Iraqi Social initiative
Example of Fatabyyano Team Contact a Tunisian Doctor, As it was claimed that he said that the COVID19 Pandemic would end in Tunisia in February 2021, and after contacting him, we found that the claim was False and that he did not say that
An Example of Fatabyyano Team Contacting a restaurant owner (DITS) to get an official statement after a viral altered video showing people falling and dying in his restaurant
An Example of Fatabyyano Team reaching out to a participant in X-factor from Ukraine to confirm his nationality and get an explanation of what happened to him during the auditions
.An Example of Fatabyyano Team Contacting an Egyptian young man to verify his health after misleading news spread about his death in his wedding
An Example of Fatabyyano Team Reaching out to a photographer to get details of a photo he took in 2016
An Example of Fatabyyano Team reaching out to a German photographer to inquire about a photo he took in front of BMW museum
General speaking: we build our response upon multiple sources to ensure the credibility and the accuracy of our response and we rarely respond to a post with only one source, This is clear in the posts mentioned above and all of our Articles on our website
.in this article we used satellite imagery to detect fire in a specific time in KSA to confirm the evidence
.Using Error Level Analysis “ELA” scan to detect if the image has been manipulated
.Using google maps (street view) to confirm a location and compare it to the claim
.Using google earth (historical imagery) to confirm a location and compare a recent photo with an old one
.Using (inspect element) in google chrome to read the web page data for evidence
Using an image translation site to detect the language and translate to English, + Using the archive to scrap old/deleted data from websites
