Update 4/5: According to Meta’s Chief Global Affairs Officer, Joel Kapilin, on Monday, the facts of Meta will be copied.
Kapilon tweeted on Friday, “By Monday afternoon, our facts examination in the United States will be officially over.” “This means checking a new fact and there is no facts checkers.”
According to Kapilin, the X -styling community notes will be replaced, which will “begin to appear slowly in Facebook, threads and Instagram, without any penalties,” Earlier, the posts that were flagged by the facts checkers were reduced to the feed.
The switch is just happening in the United States. Meta says it will “improve community notes during the year before expanding other countries.”
The original story 3/13:
The Meta will start testing a community note on March 18 for Facebook, Instagram, and threads.
Meta says the community notice model, was previously announced in January, aims to “be less biased than the Third Party facts checking program, which is replaced by its place.”
The company did not provide specific examples of prejudiced facts. The system began in December 2016 after CEO Mark Zuckerberg Dowan Played The idea of social media affects elections as a “crazy idea”. Until last year, Meta had 10 facts checking partners in the United States, including Fact Czech.com and USA Today. The flagged material was reduced to the feeds.
Today, Meta said the community’s notes would “be less risk of prejudice … because publishing notes requires a contract between different people.”
Posts checking the facts, however, will not be less. “The notes will provide additional contexts, but they will not affect who can see or how it can be widely shared,” Meta says. Partners who examine the facts are free to become partners of the community note.

Meta began accepting the partner signup last month. About 200,000 people have signed up. To become a partnership, someone should be based in the United States, should be 18+, “good standing standing” should have more than six months old account and it has to enroll in the verification of the certified phone number or two element.
Each note can be 500 characters, it should include a link, and follow the social standards of the meta. All notes are written by humans and are posted only when the “coffee partners” agree that they are helpful. At the time of launch, community notes in English, Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, French and Portuguese will be supported. More languages will be added later.
The author’s name will not be revealed to the meta notes. They will just say, “People added a community note,” and show it when it was posted. Meta says, “We want the notes to be classified whether the context they include is helpful, not who wrote it.” Once the note appears, consumers will be able to select it and classify whether it is “not helpful” or “helpful”.

Note will not appear under ads. (Meta had rumors about accepting payment for advertising posts exempt from community notes.) However, partners will be allowed to submit notes under posts by meta executives, politicians and other public figures, including all other users.
On Thursday, Meta reiterated that the community was taking a page from notice X. “Initially, we will use the X’s Open source algorithm as the basis of our rating system. This will allow us to create and improve our platforms over time.”
Meta, however, will edit it over time and improve your system. It says, “As our own version develops, we can find different or adjusted algorithms to support how the community note is ranked and classified.”
Meta is first launching it in the United States. Somewhere, the facts will remain.
“Once comfortable in beta testing, Meta will show this feature to all users of the United States,” she says. “Finally, Meta hopes she will enhance this feature to all users all over the world.”
