Community Notes use the pinned client’s own viewing, writing and rating screens.

​
Writing access

Admins grant or revoke Community Notes writing access under a user’s Access section. Writing is denied by default and enforced server-side. Contributors have random aliases independent of their handles.

​
Requesting and rating

  • Signed-in active users can request notes and rate other people’s notes.
  • Authors can’t rate their own notes.
  • Requests and ratings are deduplicated.
  • Blocked accounts can’t interact through notes.

​
Removing notes

Authors can delete their notes. Admins and moderators can remove notes, and staff removals are recorded in the audit log.

​
Scoring

A note on a misleading post is shown as context when it has:
  • at least five active ratings, and
  • a 95% Wilson lower bound above 50%.
Ratings from suspended accounts are excluded.
This is not X’s matrix-factorization scoring. Media-match notes and automated translation are not implemented.

​
Appeals

Authors can appeal a Not Helpful note at /account/notes/appeals. Admins and moderators review appeals there, and decisions are recorded in the audit log. A staff decision doesn’t change the reader score.
