Thad,

Thank you for the information about schema.org with respect to 
ClaimReview<https://schema.org/ClaimReview>.

A point of disagreement with that schema.org model is the ratings system 
concept (x out of N). Instead, for discussion, I prefer a more annotational 
approach for fact checking with typed annotations produced and consumed by both 
humans and software tools. That is, I prefer the concept of an informational 
message, warning, error system for fact checking resembling software IDE’s. 
Such a model is intuitive, can be readily formalized, made machine-utilizable, 
and typed annotations – informational messages, warnings, and errors – can be 
merged from multiple sources or service providers.


Best regards,
Adam

P.S.: As interesting, a new W3C Community Group is launching on the topic of 
document services. The group intends to discuss and make new architecture and 
API to facilitate: spellchecking, grammar checking, proofreading, fact 
checking, mathematical proof checking, reasoning checking, argumentation 
checking, and narrative checking. If the group interests you, please do feel 
free to support the creation of the group: 
https://www.w3.org/community/groups/proposed/#services .

Oops, the better link for the Schema.org work to support fact checking (some 
even still in progress after 3 years) probably should have been this:
