How do you check a link?

We open the page your text links to and look for the number you put next to it. If the page says it, we say so. If the page does not say it, we show you the closest sentence that is actually there, so you can see the difference yourself.

Does it tell me if a number is false?

No, and that is on purpose. We only tell you what the page you linked to says. A number can be completely true and still sit behind a link that does not show it, which is the most common problem we find.

What about numbers with no link?

We list them. Across eleven real statistics posts we measured, about half the numbers had no source of any kind, which is usually the largest group in a document.

Yes. You can paste a post and check it without an account.

The words are swapped, and one number is rounded differently. No spell check or editor would catch it. Half the numbers in posts like this have no link at all, and we list those too. It was 55 of 114 in the articles we read.

When we cannot check3 / 5

When we cannot check

We tell you which kind of nothing.

Not every link can be opened. Each one gets a reason, and each reason is something your reader will hit too. The counts are from 114 numbers we read across 11 articles.

No link at all

Nothing to open, so nothing to check. This is the largest group in every article we have read, and the one writers are most surprised by.

Behind a paywall

We are stopped at the same wall your reader is stopped at. The link is real and it still does not let anyone check you.

Dead link

The page is gone. Your reader clicks it and lands on nothing, or on a product page that never carried the number.

Live dashboard

The page only ever shows today. The number your reader sees is not the number you wrote, and neither of you is wrong.
