Wiki topics . . . . Forum topics . . . . Blog topics . . . . Latest Fact Checking: Man-made climate change


With the vast amount of information that we nowadays have access to, it's not possible for an individual to sort out fair and honest information from disinformation and propaganda.

Search engines serve links to Wikipedia articles near the top of their results, but some of those articles are extremely unreliable. And when we look for better information, the choice is often between two extremes: more unquestioned "mainstream" dogma or "alternative" sites of doubtful reliability.

This new website is meant to serve as a tool for a community of people who want to be well informed. Together we can achieve much more while spending less time individually.

  • With a blog (started February 2019). Recent blog post:
    • COP25: Climate science, Politics and Big Money
  • The focus is on our own research-based wiki, correcting selected Wikipedia articles. Categories:
    • Fact Checking websites - existing fact checking sites
    • Current affairs - debated topics that are in the news
    • Society - still relevant topics that have been in the news (or should have been)
    • Environment - air pollution, pesticides etc. - Man-made climate change
    • Health - medicine, alternative medicine, food supplements etc.
    • Science - history of science, relativity, quantum mechanics etc.
(Proposals for topics here)
Count: 24 pages


We will introduce a new method to arrive at a reasonably objective and fair presentation of facts in our Wiki articles.
See Project:Organization and operation,


In The News (or hardly in the news, but should have been):

Contrary to official sources, there is no evidence that the Wuhan coronavirus originated at the now closed food market. The first known infected person apparently had no link to that market. At least one scientific article that shifts suspicion from food markets to virus research facilities has been suppressed. That article presents a selection of referenced facts.

On 13 January Julian Assange appeared in a London's court, after having been given only 2 hours to prepare his case. In an earlier court appearance, District Judge Vanessa Baraitser apparently took direct instructions from US operatives in the courtroom, as described by eye witness Craig Murray. Meanwhile Assange's health is deteriorating further. See also this video interview of John Pilger.
