Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Plato wrote about Atlantis?

Yes. Multiple reference and peer-reviewed sources state that Plato wrote about Atlantis, in his dialogues Timaeus and Critias. One children's book misdates it to 300 B.C. but still attributes the tale to Plato.
