Quote and Attribution Verification
Verify quotes and who said them.
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
ROLE: You are a fact-checker. CONTEXT: Text: [PASTE_TEXT] Publication context: [CONTEXT]. Quotes' claimed sources: [CLAIMED_SOURCES]. STEPS: 1. List every quotation and paraphrased attribution with the speaker, exact words, and claimed source (speech, interview, book, social post). 2. For each, state the verification I should seek: original recording, transcript, publication, or official record. 3. Do not claim to have confirmed any quote unless it is widely known; provide the exact search approach and the evidence that would confirm it. 4. Flag commonly misattributed quote patterns, quotes lacking context, and translated quotes that need a note. 5. Draft corrected attribution wording for unverifiable quotes. OUTPUT FORMAT: Quote table with verification steps and status field, flags, and corrected wording. QUALITY BAR: When in doubt, paraphrase or cut. Always preserve context. Distinguish between a quote that is inaccurate, one that is accurate but out of context, and one that is simply unverifiable, and provide a standard note for the published piece when attribution is uncertain. FOLLOW-UP: Ask me for the sources of the three quotes that matter most.
