      I don’t understand what this is meant to be. And the links are definitely not helping.

        Asking what is Tournesol ?

        It’s a tool that gathers users (registered on Tournesol’s website) opinion about videos about quality of information and others metrics, and from that get a score that meant to be representative to how much the video is to be recommended or not (according to given users metrics)

        The sunflower score is that aggregated community opinion, as a value in a range from -100 to +100 (positive values are “Good” videos, and negative are “Bad” ones). The score also depends on the “certainty” of the value: If not a lot of users, or only untrusted users have evaluated it, sunflower score will not get as high as if it was compared by a lot of trusted people.
        Also to get an idea, the current most recommended English video on Tournesol have a score of 59🌻.

        According to that, this video having a score of 28🌻, that means that this video is recommended by the most of Tournesol’s community who have watched it. We may expect the information given in this video to be trustworthy, and not to contain dangerous content (like hate, racism, sexism…)

        I hope I helped; if you want more (or less ?) detail, please tell me, I’ll do my best (as I’m only a member of Tournesol community, I’m not part of the non-profit org)
