This page facilitates a discussion about believing, disbelieving and what we need to offer to Factlink users
All of the below described options concern the following situation:
X->F2 (Factlink X is supported/weakened by Factlink F2)
Supporting
| Relationship | F2 | Result | User | Remarks | |
| B | B | I believe X is supported by the true fact F2 | Normal | ||
| B | D | I believe the relationship, but I disagree that F2 is true | Logic-freak | ||
| B | U | I believe the relationship but I am uncertain if F2 is true | Expert | ||
| D | B | I believe F2, but there is no relationship between F2 and X | Expert | ||
| D | D | I don’t believe the relationship, and I don’t believe F2 | Normal | “This is all nonsense”, only on existing facts? | |
| D | U | I don’t believe the relationship and am uncertain F2 is true | Expert | ||
| U | B | I am uncertain about the relationship, but I do believe F2 | Expert | This is done when viewing F2, not when making a relationship | |
| U | D | I am uncertain about the relationship and I don’t believe F2 | Expert | This is done when viewing F2, not when making a relationship | |
| U | U | I am uncertain this has anything to do with the fact | Normal | What is the difference with no opinion? |
Weakening
| Relationship | F2 | Result | User | Remarks | |
| B | B | I believe F2 is true, and it weakens X | Normal | ||
| B | D | I don’t believe F2, but I think it would weaken X | Logic-freak | ||
| B | U | I believe X if weakened by F2, but I am uncertain about F2 | Expert | ||
| D | B | I believe F2, but there is no weakening relationship to X | Expert | Is this the same as I believe F2 and believe the support relationship? | |
| D | D | I don’t believe F2, and there is no weakening relationship to X | Normal | “This is all nonsense”, only on existing facts? | |
| D | U | I am uncertain about F2, but there is no disbelieve relationship to X | Expert | ||
| U | B | I am uncertain about the relationship, but I do believe F2 | Expert | This is done when viewing F2, not when making a relationship | |
| U | D | I am uncertain about the relationship and I don’t believe F2 | Expert | This is done when viewing F2, not when making a relationship | |
| U | U | I am uncertain this has anything to do with the fact | Normal | What is the difference with no opinion? |
