Hi there,
Thanks for your work in providing these datasets.
Did you guys regularly update the dataset?
And could you provide the source of the rumors?

Thanks for your interest in our dataset! As far as I know, data here is more up-to-date than that in this repo. The rumors are collected from here. You'll have to login to weibo to visit this page.

Hi, thanks for your timely response.

  1. What is the user name of fact-checker in Weibo (Chinese Twitter)?
  2. Can you provide the specific address of DXY and Tencent fact-checking websites (not the main site of DXY or Tencent?
    This will greatly increase the transparency of your dataset and improve the credibility of this dataset.
    Thanks!

  1. When a user reports a rumor, Weibo is responsible for fact-checking, though the reporter may provide related materials about the fact. In our dataset, there is a related_url property for each rumor item. It contains the links to the evidence or rules Weibo is citing to make the judgement.
  2. Each rumor item has a unique rumorCode property. The corresponding url to the page is https://service.account.weibo.com/show?rid=[rumorCode].
