US midterms are coming up and there's already a noticeable increase in dis/misinformation and propaganda. This seems like a good time to repost some guides on how to spot it. The last point of ask the experts. If you need health or tech experts, as me for refs. guides.library.pdx.edu/c.php?g=6253...
1. Consider the source. Click away from the story to investigate the site, it's mission and it's contact info.
2. Read Beyond. Headlines can be outrageous in and effort to get clicks. What's the whole story?
3. Check the author. Do a quick search on the author. Are they credible, are they real?
4. Supporting sources? Click on those links. Determine if the info given actually supports the story.
5. Check the date. Reposting old news stories doesn't mean they're relevant to current events.
6. Is it a joke? If it's too outlandish, it might be satire. Research the site and author to be sure.
7. Check your biases. Consider if your own beliefs could affect your judgement.
8. Ask the experts. Ask a librarian, or consult a fact checking site.

Although I don’t moderate this section of the forum, here’s a friendly reminder from last time the US government instigated a frivolous naming dispute over an international body of water:

These are the guidelines we use to determine what should be considered the name of a feature:

Names
Multilingual names
Disputes
Currently, the Gulf is tagged with name=Golfo de México, name:en=Gulf of Mexico, and official_name:en-US=Gulf of America. This is unlikely to change, unless the US government reverses its position, or (less likely) English speakers across the world all agree to start using the US government name. That last tag, official_name:en-US=*, is quite obscure and doesn’t show up on any map renderers that I’m aware of. But its inclusion allows people to, for example, search for “Gulf of America” and be redirected to the Gulf of Mexico.

Please keep comments on-topic and substantial. We all have opinions, and it’s easy to drop your two cents in an online forum. However, a discussion about OSM naming guidelines or real-world name usage statistics might be worth at least a few dollars here.

In this case, the lake is tagged with name=Lake Ontario, official_name:en-US=Lake America. For this situation to change, the government would need to reverse its position.

The guidelines on naming disputes apply to every country equally. This is far from the only naming dispute around the world. Let’s not get bogged down in American exceptionalism when we consider how the tagging guidelines should or shouldn’t change.
