    So, Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales launches Wikitribune, a large-scale attempt to combat fake news[^] By ... getting anyone who wants to check the facts ... I sense a small problem here, as @DalekDave has proved with Wikipedia ... :laugh:

    I think the background idea is that it will keep trolls fully occupied, so we can hunt down real news whilst they're trolling each other.

      In our creative world of ones and zeros, no news is indeed good news (a happy user doesn't gripe). In the real word, no news would be frightening.

          So that's how it works today... What rating did the buyer leave?

            Are you sure, typing [@DalekDave](https://www.codeproject.com/Members/DalekDave) could awaken the [@DalekDave](https://www.codeproject.com/Members/DalekDave) Demon.

              So don't type @DalekDave - you know what will happen. And (@DalekDave) you don't want to (@DalekDave) awaken the sleeping beast @DalekDave accidentaly, do you? @DalekDave Does each of these @DalekDave summonings send @DalekDave a separate email? If so, we better stop typing @DalekDave before @DalekDave finds his inbox full.

                I've been on the internet for long enough to know that FACTS! are always in upper-case and accompanied by an exclamation mark.

                It's nice to have someone around who is experienced enough to make sure we stay on the straight and narrow. :laugh: :thumbsup:

                There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data. There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
