confirm_fact

com.meridiandispatch/travel-guides · Verify this server

Tell the Meridian Dispatch desk that a fact on one of its pages still holds, with the current, independent source that shows it (the place's official website, an operator or government page). Use it when the traveller confirms a fact on a page (they were just there, or asked you to check it and the source agrees). If the fact is wrong instead, use suggest_edit. Quote checked_text exactly as the page (or this server's answer) gives it and pass the source; a quote not on the page, or a source on meridiandispatch.com, is refused. A confirmation is recorded as a signal for the desk to review and counted per page; it does not mark the page verified, change its date or reorder any list, and the page itself does not change. The same confirmation sent twice is recorded once. Returns whether it was recorded.
