Yeah, kind of like that. What would be needed to get curated are the facts. Who could do it, would be the author of the original article. Maybe the author just needs to flag the wrong facts. In my, obviously very well minded view, an author has a big interest that first: his scientific article is correct - you get real bad reputation if your science is provable wrong - and that the facts others get out of it, are also correct. Of course, highly positive view :)

I love the idea ("Foundational Shared Truth"), but you don't need a blockchain, just a changelog that can be mirrored or consumed like certificate transparency. I suppose that's a blockchain of sorts?
