We found that **81.23%** of all the community notes had URLs in them. Of all the posts that had a URL in them, 30.81% posts had two or more links in them. Majority of those URLs were of X itself (x.com and twitter.com). Wikipedia came second with 6.12%. This was followed by Youtube, AP News, Google, BBC, Reuters, Instagram etc.

Next, we repeated the same analysis to find the number of community notes which have International Fact-Checking Network ([IFCN](https://www.poynter.org/ifcn/)) websites included in them. We collected the list of [active IFCN Signatories](https://ifcncodeofprinciples.poynter.org/signatories) and used them to manually create an array with their domains. As of May 2025, there are 159 active IFCN signatories, while manually creating the list we were only able to access the domains of 157 websites of which 19 are India based IFCN signatories. It is important to note that many IFCN signatories also publish news stories alongside their fact-checking reports. The graph below is aggregating mentions of websites which are also IFCN certified fact checkers but these also include **stories on the websites that are not fact checked content.**
