On this page people could edit transcript of the speech and do fact checking on the claims he make.

That's something I've been exploring as a possible solution too. I wonder what are you thoughts about it.

Thank you Andre, Richard, and Mateus. I have created a project proposal for Wikifact: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikifact . I hope to improve it as discussion unfolds. While awaiting a new channel or working group to discuss the pros and cons, please feel free to make use of the project proposal page and its discussion page.

Thanks Andre! I'll love to discuss it there.

Jimmy has a project that does exactly that.

I like Jimmy’s project but do not see it progressing to the direction what I was imagining.

Having said that, what we could do is have a project investigating the missing information in Wikidata.

Wikidata is great, but I do not see how it could serves the purpose, I was thinking about.I was visioning a wiki site where one could start a page with the title: 

General Min Aung Hlaing's[1] speech on TV Feb 8th 2021[2] 

On this page people could edit transcript of the speech and do fact checking on the claims he make.
