How our trackers work
- The rating changes only after an editor reviews new evidence. Automated monitoring adds headlines to each tracker's feed, but never moves the rating.
- Every tracker lists what would change its rating, so you can see what we are watching for.
- We cite credible sources only, and label anything we link with caution.
- Ratings measure evidence, not plausibility. A claim rated unproven may later prove true; we update the page if it does.
