In particular, we report on our aims and methods, and the development and use of a web application that we designed to enable a collective analysis of press releases allowing a high number of users. Specifically, we give a brief account of the HTML- and PHP-based platform, which was used to analyze and review press releases on a controversial vaccine.encitizen sciencesocial sciencecodingcrowdsourcingcollaborationCollective organization of discourse expertise using information technology – CODE IT!Text/Journal Article10.1515/itit-2017-00222196-7032
