What our checks counted
Editorial standards
This page counts what two of our own checks kept and dropped: the pages the article gate refused, and the quotes the evidence check could not find in the text.
What we keep and what we drop: articles
Every page we fetch must clear the article gate: a real title, a published date, a lead image, an article address and a body of enough length.
Stored 32,330, dropped 25,940
Methodology| Outcome | Pages |
|---|---|
| Stored | 32,330 |
| Dropped | 25,940 |
| Body too short or low quality | 25,787 |
| Title missing or too short | 100 |
| No lead image | 51 |
| Link is not an article page | 2 |
Read: Of 58,270 pages the gate decided, 32,330 were stored and 25,940 were dropped, over 950 runs.
n=58,270 · October 16, 2026 – November 15, 2026 (30-day window) · ops · log events, internal · floor 1
as of 15 Nov 2026. Dropped means fetched and refused by the gate. Stored includes stories later marked as a duplicate of one already stored. Failed fetches are not counted either way.
Quotes we could not find
A stance is stored only when the words quoted for it are found exactly in the text the model was shown. A quote that is not found is dropped, not stored.

What this page is not
It is not a verdict on any outlet, it ranks none, and it makes no statement about any law or council. It is counts of our own checks, each with its sample, its dates and its source.
