# Behind the Hashtag: #ReceptioGate
The term “ReceptioGate” has been widely used online since late 2022, often without context or verification. This website is a curated public archive of real facts, documents, publications, and academic responses related to the coordinated campaign targeting the RECEPTIO Research Centre and its partners.
What has been labelled a “scandal” is in fact the result of a smear campaign rooted in misinformation, disinformation, and commercial interests threatened by academic research into the dismemberment of medieval manuscripts.
