Benjamin Moser - Visual Fact-Check Guide

Attachment (file not included in this release) · Main research note

How to use the visual review

The main canvas now follows the page layout directly: a marked book page on the left connects to its fact check; the consulted evidence and source links sit above that fact check. Supporting source-page images and the author’s citation trail sit alongside it. Each paper page is a native image card, so a card contains exactly one page and has no internal PDF scrolling. Pan and zoom across the canvas to move between pages.

A red line runs from the selected passage to the page margin, then into its fact-check box. Red rectangles select passages; they do not by themselves label a passage false. Existing verdicts, evidence and uncertainty are preserved. The 77 review rows cover 76 distinct checks; four rows contain a second marked page, giving 81 page-to-check diagrams. Each split passage retains its continuation context.

All 407 book pages and 82 citation-PDF pages also appear as individual image cards in the complete page galleries on the same canvas. Chapters are spatial groups; no chapter has been embedded as a scrollable document. Original PDFs remain available from page captions and are unchanged.

Annotations were added only to the review copies. The canvas displays rendered individual pages, preserving those marks without relying on PDF-viewer or plugin activation. A marker can focus on one representative sentence within a larger multi-page claim; the existing audit and complete galleries preserve the surrounding context. A sentence split over pages is shown as an excerpt/continuation rather than silently completed.

Citation alignment: 19 author entries were confidently matched and marked. Other rows explicitly show nearby chapter context; they do not assert a missing citation or imply a precise sentence match. The source/evidence column remains distinct from Moser’s own footnotes.

Optional chapter views and validation limits

The Attachment (file not included in this release) and the existing chapter-specific canvases remain available. Their PDF cards have also been converted to individual page images. The primary view is the single canvas linked at the top of this guide.

Advanced Canvas remains configured as enabled. The page layout itself uses native image, text, group and edge nodes, and does not require its PDF-pinning feature. Source access limits and the original research’s open issues remain unchanged. Cyan boxes identify consulted evidence; purple boxes identify the author’s own source trail, not independent proof.

Page coverage, image paths, passage connector alignment, edge endpoints, link anchors and original-file hashes are checked programmatically. A rendered layout sample is checked separately. Direct interaction with the running Obsidian window is unavailable in this session, so native application rendering and runtime plugin activation are not claimed as visually verified.
