It is possible to say that they apply the methodology steps clearly in most of the examples. I see this as a positive sign. In the example cases they provided, I realized that the methodology was applied in every possible situation.

The application of the methodology is at the forefront rather than who the source of the claim is or who the confirmation will affect. It is not possible to talk about an approach that prioritizes the interests of a particular actor.

Claim's impact on society and the reach of the claim are given priority while making decisions about fact-checking. It seems like reach is given more priority.

*In the previous application the assessor recommends making the Methodology more visible as this section is very important for people to see how claims are selected, and upon this recommendation, we put the methodology in the main menu as a separate section too, in addition to keep it in the sub-menu of "who we are" 

The organization generally does not confirm stories that might be perceived as too conflicting. Therefore, there are not many cases to analyze whether they are parties to apparent conflicts of interest. However, the way they apply the methodology, the compliance with the IFCN standards in selected social impact-based cases is very satisfactory.

It should be noted, however, that this actor, like some other IFCN signatories, has worked on the stories that I had a hard time understanding the negative social impact of. I think a special effort should be made for focusing more on social impact.

- Then take a screenshot of the claim from the most popular or the most engaging post that shared the claim, then we cite this page name and description when the claim was published and How much engagement it got until the moment of writing the claim and we write this date. then we describe the engagement or how much spread mainly by saying how many shares it got and how many views if it was a video this single claim post got.

Then, we search social media platforms for similar claim posts or by using tools like CrowdTangle or by using Google or Yandex Search Engines and cite those in our Fact-checking article for better clarify how widely spread this claim, ( to cover most of claim links on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Youtube..etc ) and also it helps in rating the claims for Facebook recently

They have a solid methodology available on their website.

we mention this in details in our Methodology and our Fact-checking Guidelines.

But in briefly Fatabyyano depends on 2 main criteria when deciding if the claim is worth fact-checking and to select our Claims priorities

1. the claim has a dangerously negative impact on society if the claim spreads like causing violence, spread hates speech, or affect individuals negatively on their health for example.

2. How much the claim is spread ( Number of Likes, Shares, Retweets ) in the current time which decides how urgently the claim needs verification.

We encourage Our Audience to contact us easily via this link

https://fatabyyano.net/send-rumor/

In addition to that we receive "Direct messages" From our Audience on Social Media; Mainly on our Facebook page & Instagram account as well as our Twitter account. we are highly responsive on Social Media too, as people prefer using Social media to send claims. we receive around 125 messages daily and we replay them personally, usually within the first 24 hours. we try our best to respond to all messages.

In addition to that users on Facebook for example can tag us " mention us " on claims that they suspect that it is fake, and we also review all mentions we receive in order to provide the best services to our users.  We always thanks the audience

This had been explained in our Fact-checking Guidelines

What is not fact-checkable by Fatabyyano:

1. Fatabyyano doesn't fact-check claims that are considered a politician's opinion

2. Fatabyyano doesn't fact-check posts that are private or limited to friends like these posts by their nature can't spread on a large scale.

3. Fatabyyano prioritizes the claims that are widely spread at the moment and we postpone claims with a low spread in our list of fact-checking.

notice: In Some Cases, Fatabyyano team can Fact-check claims with low spread currently if the team saw it will become viral soon.

4. Fatabyyano constricts its Fact-checking to claims spread in the MENA region in Arabic.

notice: Fatabyyano team can Internally fact-check a claim not spreading currently in the MENA region if they saw that it will come to the MENA region soon enough & publish it in the right time. as a way to be ready when the Fake Claim starts to spread in the MENA region. Especially during the COVID19 pandemic, we found that much misinformation spread from country to country and from language to language rapidly. 

If you are in doubt if these rules apply to the claim you want to send or not, don't hesitate to send it and we will inform you about the status of the claim after reviewing it.

And here you can found our Transparency Policy Criteria

Fatabyyano depends on 2 main criteria when deciding if the claim is worth fact-checking and selecting our Claims priorities

1. the claim has a dangerously negative impact on society if the claim spreads like causing violence, spread hate speech, or affect individuals negatively on their Health for example.

2. How much the claim is spread ( Number of Likes, Shares, Retweets ) in the current time which decides how urgently the claim needs verification.
