Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Single-family zoning is often referred to as 'exclusionary zoning' because it emerged as a way to keep racial and ethnic minority groups out of the suburbs after explicit racial zoning was found to be unconstitutional.

    “For this reason, single-family zoning is often referred to as “exclusionary zoning” because it emerged as a way to keep racial and ethnic minority groups out of the suburbs after explicit racial zoning was found to be unconstitutional.157”

    From NPCC4: Advancing climate justice in climate adaptation strategies for New York City (2024) · cites this paper as [157]

    The Results and Discussion passages address the demographics and equity of flood-prone property buyouts, not zoning. Searches for “single-family zoning,” “exclusionary zoning,” racial zoning, and suburban segregation found no passage in our copy addressing the claimed history or terminology. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
