We propose a novel text editing task, referred to as \textit{fact-based text editing}, in which the goal is to revise a given document to better describe the facts in a knowledge base (e.g., several triples). The task is important in…

Evidence plays a crucial role in automated fact-checking. When verifying real-world claims, existing fact-checking systems either assume the evidence sentences are given or use the search snippets returned by the search engine. Such methods…
