Wikipedia's credibility relies on its sources. To help editors evaluate reference reliability, a group of us at WikiCredCon built [WikiSignals.org](http://wikisignals.org), a searchable database of 70K websites — each with domain data, many with credibility indicators. Our first goal is helping Wikipedia editors select citations. We've interviewed [active Wikipedia editors](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Hearvox/WikiSignals/Tools). We've aggregated information on about 20K news sites and all domains with 50+ citations in Wikipedia (en) articles. We added a REST API and continue to collect domain data, including accessibility scores, Wikimedia assessments (RSPs, spam blocklists, etc.), and Wikipedia external-link counts. Our next task is to tackle credibility ratings for science journals — peer-reviewed and predatory. Our talk will take a quick tour of WikiSignals then share what we've learned about: * How editors work * Working with mis/disinfo researchers. * Using public data to estimate domain-level source credibility. This project is a collaboration between [Veri.FYI](https://veri-fyi.toolforge.org/), [Factiverse](https://www.factiverse.ai/), [SimPPL](https://simppl.org/'), [AfroCrowd](https://afrocrowd.org/), [Iffy.news](https://iffy.news/), and the [Internet Archive Reference Explorer](https://internetarchive.github.io/iare/).
