Feature Suggestion: Optional Author-Context Layer for High-Visibility Posts in Community Notes #443

Description

@tomhenke-i8

Suggestion

For highly viral posts and high-profile public figures on contentious topics, add an optional structured author-context layer:

• Relevant domain expertise vs. track record on this specific issue
• Consistent framing patterns, including ideological lean where the public post history shows a clear signal (with sourced examples)
• Multi-axis probabilistic signals + confidence bands
• Automatic weak-signal, low-data, sarcasm, or outdated-view flags

Scope
Limited strictly to high-visibility cases only. Fully transparent, bridging-rated, and with easy user feedback.

Why it helps
It would let readers better evaluate “who is saying this and what priors are they bringing?” — especially for voices who appear neutral. This could reduce deception and support de-escalation across all sides.

Examples (see attached thread for visuals):

  • Domain expertise mismatch
  • Ideological lean signals
  • Multi-axis scores
  • Weak-signal flags
