Is it worth it to roll up a post with suggestions for a site on a hot topic?

Good day Khabrazhiteli.
I am familiar with how IT people do not digest everything related to politics, so I will first ask a question here.

Recently, the mass media has been constantly brainwashed with various “But we will do ...”, or “We are so cool, we have already done so much”. And in particular, as a techie, I really want to look at the whole statistics of what this person (party, organization) promised, and what exactly they did.

As an option, it may be worth making a similar resource, where such public promises could be aggregated and, as a result, you can see how “empty” a person is. I think it would be very revealing for domestic politicians.
This, of course, is not a “means of solving all problems”, but in my opinion it would be interesting to look at such a resource before the same elections, otherwise such things are clearly moderated on official websites in whose favor, I would immediately like independent dry statistics with prooflinks.

What do you think? Worthy of a separate post?

Unfortunately, with all your desire, you will not collect enough objective information about the party/candidate.
The quantity and quality of such data is simply immeasurable. And no one can objectively compare them.
Typical situation.
Here are two cases: 1) He said that he would build a kindergarten in the city of N., but did not. [Photo of a poor child] (-99999 votes) 2) The percentage of meat consumption of the average population has increased by 15% this year. [graph] (+17)
Those who understand that the percentage of meat consumption is a very serious indicator of an increase in the welfare of citizens. Highly. But citizens do not know about this, just like the fact that they do not know where and what to look at.
Therefore, for such a case, the system is not very good.
I would suggest that you expand it in this direction. Create a kind of wikipedia of biographies of political figures. Only you need to deal with not from the most important meadows from ordinary mayors of cities, etc. So that every fart spoils their karma.
Alas, about 50 years ago, the media began a rapid degeneration and this niche is empty.
