About The Fallacy Guide
The Fallacy Guide is a concise reference to common reasoning errors. It is maintained in-repo with static data so it can be reviewed, improved, and extended without external dependencies.
Editorial goals
- Keep explanations short, pattern-focused, and example-driven.
- Surface recognition and response strategies that can be applied quickly.
- Stay neutral: highlight structure, not ideology.
Limitations
This site is not legal advice or debate coaching. It is a static reference and may not capture every nuance or edge case. Always pair definitions with context, evidence, and the norms of your audience.
Contact & contributions
If you find errors or want to add more examples, extend the dataset in the repository. The project intentionally avoids external APIs so it can be audited easily.
