I'm writing User:GRuban/Honey Badger (men's rights) which is an article on "Honey Badgers", which is what female men's rights activists are called. Any comments about "a rara avis", or that " there ain't no such animal", have been foreseen, and will be dealt with appropriately! I can write without the rest of "A Voice for Men", since Honey Badgers have gotten a good bit of coverage in unrelated reliable sources but this one very specific page on A Voice for Men is specifically the place where Paul Elam asked for a term for female men's rights activists, and Tara Palmatier suggested "Honey Badgers" in the comment section, which was adopted. There is, by definition, no substitute. -- GRuban ( talk) 14:40, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

You can find the original analysis on Talk:Kenosha unrest. To summarize, editor posts an article on the talk page, I read it. I later include a claim based on that article. The article's too general so I follow the source chain, and it turns out the claim is based on a statement given by Facebook to Breitbart. I consider the claim by itself to be reliable, it's made by a named journalist who published a book on the subject, it includes precise citations from the facebook spokesman but doesn't reveal their name. Furthermore, the statement is itself cited by at least 3 outlets, at least one of which is reliable (Buzzfeed) Please add this article as an exception to the breitbart.com blacklist, alternatively, please let me know of a scenario where a Breitbart correspondent falsified a statement by an informant. Thanks -- TZubiri ( talk) 01:17, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
Oppose – At Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Perennial_sources#Breitbart_News you will find links to numerous discussions which concluded that Breitbart "has published a number of falsehoods, conspiracy theories, and intentionally misleading stories". Smyth ( talk) 15:26, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
Oppose - The article text in question is "Facebook labelled the incident as a "mass murder" and banned all expressions of support for Rittenhouse."
I see no reason to cite the Breitbart article, "Facebook Declares Kyle Rittenhouse’s Actions ‘Mass Murder,’ Won’t Allow Posts in Support", since the fact has been very widely reported by reliable sources including
ABC News and
The Guradian which are currently cited. –

No doubt that YouTube has a lot of "junk" on it, but this video in particular would be an excellent addition to the "External Links" section of the article Brown Grand Theatre. It is (I presume) copyrighted material, so it isn't well-suited for a conversion to a Wikipedia file. I believe that including this link would help make Wikipedia better by making the article better.

Unfortunately some details of the game Xeno Crisis are contained on kickstarter.com, and I'd like to include these links as references to help round out the remaining parts of this page. The game's developers used the backer updates feature as the "development blog", and a lot of first party information about the game is contained on this blog.
The URLs I'd like unblocked include the main campaign page (contains details of the game's story and the individuals involved in the project), a link to the entire backer updates as it contains additional information of development with the project, and a specific post on the development blog that mentions when the project became fully funded. If it's possible to do a regex for any page under the project's url like hxxps://www.kickstarter[.]com/projects/1676714319/xeno-crisis-a-new-game-for-the-sega-genesis-mega-d/*
