“

Those sound like to kind of quality journals that publish papers on how the spare change you find in your sofa is from spiders trying to pay rent.

Failed verification

Maybe I'll keep track of cases in which I found an ostensibly sourced claim in an article not to be supported by its ostensible source (i.e., found it to fail verification), for future reference as to how common this is.

Rating key:

1 — The claim only mildly or understandably misrepresents the source.
2 — The source says something similar but not this.
3 — The source says nothing similar.
4 — The source casts doubt on the claim.
5 — The source outright disagrees with the claim.
