Show HN: Argument Encyclopedia: User-Posted Claims and Rebuttals
controverse.wikiWhen I see online debates it soon becomes difficult to keep track of the various branches of claims and counter-claims. Here's my simple attempt to do so.
A user can make claims (within a subject area) and anyone can make rebuttals to any of the claims. This is really cool - I think its really helpful in difficult conversations when you can encourage people to choose a single branch / claim of the argument and stick to resolving that before confounding by mixing in other claims.
Personally, I'd love to be able to see a visual branching of different arguments / counterarguments, with some visual indicator for how much support each has. Thank you. Yes this was my exact vision for it. Like a spider's web so that you can easily see which objections to any claims. And yes with some kind of voting feature. I just figured this would be an easy place to start and see if people were interested in it.
