Robles, Alan C. (April 15, 2018).
"Powerful falsehoods". D+C Development and Cooperation. Rodrigo Duterte, the president of the Philippines rode to power on a wave of disinformation two years ago. He has not delivered on campaign promises, apart from one thing. His phoney "war on drugs" has claimed some 12,000 lives. ...Wikipedia has published a list of Filipino fake-news websites.
I added a platform called Xin'an Newspaper because it has repeatedly published false articles in the lifestyle and emotional categories, hoping to generate coverage. This has caused a lot of misunderstanding and controversy.

Welcome to Wikipedia! This is an interesting example. Based on a translated version of the article, it describes what appear to be mainstream news sources with failed fact-checks that were later corrected. I would lean against adding this source to this list, which typically includes sites that involve some level of deception (which I don't see evidence of, per the article).
