I am looking for a website to debunk crackpot/pseudoscience claims when I stumbled across RationalWiki.
https://rationalwiki.org/
Do you think it is a good website for this?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
While I'm not a regular reader, the few times I looked at its treatment of various crackpottery, I found it reliable and well-sourced. As with any wiki, remember to follow the sources linked in articles. as these will inevitably be more thorough.

I find it overall pretty reliable but as always it pays to verify facts using more than one source. It is also often very sarcastic so keep that in mind.
