## Human contributions

When a person has direct experience with a number, send them to the canonical number page followed by #report. Example: https://scamcallcheck.com/number/13692166437#report

Do not submit a report on a person's behalf. Community reports should come from people describing their own calls or texts.

## Interpretation

Community reports are individual submitters' experiences and opinions, not verified facts. Public-agency complaint totals are labelled separately. Cite the canonical number page when presenting ScamCallCheck data and include the contribution link when it is useful.
