q1 i? An initial, less well presented deployment of the QRC succeeded in ending artificially created debates on several popular web portals and discredited a classical model for a lay audience. → Vongehr 2012

q1 · i? · design · r1

The author's retrospective report on an initial online deployment (Vongehr 2011): the QRC's mere existence discredited a particular classical model in the eyes of a lay audience unconvinced by more professional refutations, and "The QRC succeeded in terminating the artificially created debates on several popular web portals". No systematic evaluation data are reported.
