About Community Notes on X
Community Notes aim to create a better informed world by empowering people on X to collaboratively add context to potentially misleading posts. Contributors can leave notes on any post and if enough contributors from different points of view rate that note as helpful, the note will be publicly shown on a post. Sign up to become a contributor.
Community Notes are now publicly visible to everyone in the US. For more information, we have included responses to frequently asked questions below, but you can learn more through the Community Notes Guide as well.
This is an open and transparent process, that’s why we’ve made the Community Notes algorithm open source and publicly available on GitHub, along with the data that powers it so anyone can audit, analyze or suggest improvements.
Community Notes and X Rules
Community Notes do not represent X’s viewpoint and cannot be edited or modified by our teams. A post with a Community Note will not be labeled, removed, or addressed by X unless it is found to be violating the X Rules, Terms of Service, or our Privacy Policy. Failure to abide by the rules can result in one’s removal from accessing Community Notes, and/or other remediations.
Anyone can report notes they believe aren’t in accordance with those rules by selecting the menu on a note, and then selecting Report, or by using this form.

We plan to review applications on a rolling, periodic basis.
- If you see a post with a Community Notes card and note, you can rate how helpful you think the note is.
I have a note on my post. What can I do?
