FAQPage Schema
How do I fact-check claims in a document before publication?

To fact-check claims, the Skill scans your document to identify factual statements and quantitative data, then verifies them against external sources and organizes the resulting references. It evaluates each claim as accurate, incorrect, or unverifiable.

What is the best way to verify citations and references in academic writing?

Verifying citations in academic writing involves checking factual and numerical statements against external sources, then updating the reference list and adding inline footnotes to match your project's citation specifications.

How do I identify which statements in my article need reference verification?

Reference verification starts by scanning text to find definitive wording, quantitative claims, factual statements, and comparisons that require validation. The Skill prioritizes these items for external fact-checking.

Can I use automated fact-checking for report proofreading?

Automated fact-checking supports report proofreading by applying a scan-verify-reference workflow to your document. It retrieves external content to evaluate accuracy and formats the updated citations for your publication.

How does external retrieval work when a source fetch is blocked during content review?

During content review, if an external source fetch is blocked, the Skill applies specific guidance for handling the failure and evaluates the claim as unverifiable rather than leaving it unprocessed.

What types of claims can be checked during document verification?

Document verification checks factual, numerical, and citation-based statements within your text. It targets definitive wording, quantitative claims, and comparisons to ensure they are accurately supported by external sources.
