Some sort of community around a browser extension you say?
Check out https://hypothes.is/ https://hypothes.is/ it's a project to allow universal annotation of web content, which could conceivably enable just such a process of decentralized, community-moderated fact checking. Wouldn't that be nice! Of course, given what's happening on Wikipedia lately, I'm not totally convinced it could work, but hey, at least someone's trying.
- netcraft 10y agovery cool, thank you for pointing this out. I want to play with it some more, but I think one of the things that isnt fully thought out is that some url's will inherently change over time - the front page of the NYT for instance shows comments from over a year ago that obviously don't apply now - even comments from an hour ago may reference content that is no longer there. I don't have an answer for the problem but its something thats got to be thought about. Similar problem would be canonicalization of urls.
