Promoting learned discourse in online media with consideration of sources and provenance

Systems and methods are disclosed for providing a chain of authenticated citations, from an original source document available online, through a chain of later documents and posts. Also disclosed are systems and methods of machine scoring of user posts based on memos related to the expected veracity of cited sources, and the degree to which cited source material or verifiable online content may have been modified.

In one example, a method for promoting learned discourse in online forums includes posting forum content on a forum server and providing access to users to the content through an I/O module. The method further includes receiving a comment from a user and analyzing the comment from the user to produce an a priori score for the comment. A portable certificate of status is accepted from the user and used to produce a posteriori score for the comment. A system for promoting learned discourse in online forums is also disclosed.
