Within a category, entries sort by (1) latest verification: verified working, then reachable but sign-in required, then failing; (2) share of daily checks that passed; (3) number of sourced facts attached to the entry; (4) median response time of passing checks; (5) name. Nothing else counts. Rankings are never for sale: sponsors and paid plans cannot change an entry's position. Markdown · JSON
