The current parameters for the bot to send this message are that the source is considered to have medium or low credibility or that the source’s reporting is considered low or very low. The message itself doesn’t mean that the post will face any moderation action, it’s just a notification to the community. I’m still working on this functionality, so any feedback is welcome (: (I am aware of the typos, fixing them right now)
Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) rates them “mostly factual” with left bias.

I’m confused now. The commenter says they have high factuality but the bot says they have medium credibility.
What does that mean? Isn’t credibility very tightly linked to factuality?

I think it’s a pretty clever idea for a bot here, if that’s any encouragement. :)
You’re both right. Mostly factual, with medium credibility.

They love to make things they consider to have left bias lower simply because of that
