Approach 1

  1. Visit Google fact Check Markup tool:
    https://toolbox.google.com/factcheck/markuptool?authuser=2&pageId=none
  2. Enter Article URL for which you want to do Fact Check Markup:
  3. Complete the Steps on page, to generate markup code to be added on the article page:
    Here is an example of filled details for a fact check schema:
  4. Once you are done, you can also preview added markup: "View JSON-LD"

Approach 2

  1. Directly fill the fields for json-ld markup, here's a sample filled Fact Check json-ld markup:

  2. <script type="application/ld+json">
        {
          "@context": "https://schema.org",
          "@type": "ClaimReview",
          "url": "https://example.com/news/science/worldisflat.html",
          "claimReviewed": "The world is flat",
          "itemReviewed": {
            "@type": "Claim",
            "author": {
              "@type": "Organization",
              "name": "Square World Society",
              "sameAs": "https://example.flatworlders.com/we-know-that-the-world-is-flat"
            },
            "datePublished": "2024-06-20",
            "appearance": {
              "@type": "OpinionNewsArticle",
              "url": "https://example.com/news/a122121",
              "headline": "Square Earth - Flat earthers for the Internet age",
              "datePublished": "2024-06-22",
              "author": {
                "@type": "Person",
                "name": "T. Tellar"
              },
              "image": "https://example.com/photos/1x1/photo.jpg",
              "publisher": {
                "@type": "Organization",
                "name": "Skeptical News",
                "logo": {
                  "@type": "ImageObject",
                  "url": "https://example.com/logo.jpg"
                }
              }
            }
          },
          "author": {
            "@type": "Organization",
            "name": "Example.com science watch"
          },
          "reviewRating": {
            "@type": "Rating",
            "ratingValue": 1,
            "bestRating": 5,
            "worstRating": 1,
            "alternateName": "False"
          }
        }
        </script>

    For guidance on what to fill in the above markup fields, refer to google documentation of this markup:
    https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/structured-data/factcheck

  3. Once you are done creating the above json-ld code, add this here in Publive Editor (in Advanced Properties toggle on the right) to have it as part of your article page code:

  4. Publish / Update the article once above is done.
