This test a document against the Simple English Wikipedia articles for each word in the tested document. Try replacing test-factchecker.txt with your own text file!
(Warning: documents with long sentences take longer to query)
Scripts included:

Relations encapsulate a semantically significant lexical cooccurence.
Documents have a method to turn them into Doxaments (see below).
