Issue Overview: The "Lifestyle" section of Pastor Ed Young's Wikipedia article primarily relies on an investigative report from WFAA, which is secondarily supported by a Dallas News article. The latter mainly references the former, raising concerns about the independence and verification of the information presented. [1]
Concerns: Source Reliability and Independence: The primary source, WFAA, relies on anonymous sources and lacks substantial corroborative evidence. The Dallas News article does not independently verify the claims but simply references the WFAA report, raising questions about its independence and the verification of its content.

Neither of the linked references are used in the article. Why they being brought up rather than the ones in use?
I cannot access either of them. -- Hipal ( talk) 22:39, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
@ Zaereth:, could you respond to the arguments that the Dallas News reference that was actually being used in the article is not an op/ed? -- Hipal ( talk) 15:58, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Despite receiving attention on and off Wikipedia before and during COP28, there has been no update on Sultan Al Jaber to communicate the results of this event.
I would like to disclose my Conflict of Interest in regards to this article and request some changes to address missing information. I have proposed language on the Talk page for consideration, for which I would gratefully appreciate the review of people familiar with BLP policies to ensure the tone is totally neutral. Many thanks! Dedemocha ( talk) 17:23, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
An IP has added content which violates BLP guidelines, specifically unsourced allegations of sexual abuse [1]. I've reverted, but it probably needs to be scrubbed from the history. Similar allegations about this person go back a long way, but reliable sources are rarely, if ever, added. It's a difficult case for various reasons, but I thought I'd bring it here for admin attention. Thanks, Bretonbanquet ( talk) 18:50, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

I work with Andrew Schneider and can confirm that the photo featured in [ | this page] is not him.
The man in this photo is the Andrew Schneider that the above page is referring to.
The erroneous photo is the first image that appears when "Andrew Schneider showrunner" is searched, which has caused confusion at times.

vandalism to article and unsubstantiated allegations repeatedly inserted as if factual — Preceding unsigned comment added by Womenwiki2050 ( talk • contribs) 02:41, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
At no point did Emil "attack" Starfield's players. He posted claritifications about game development after being the subject of intensive harassment and hate online - harassment which took place shortly after his sister's death. The wording on the following sentence is highly misrepresentative of what he said:
"After the game's mixed reception after launch and further souring in reviews post launch, Pagliarulo attacked the game's players, stating they where "Disconnected from the Realities of Game Developing."
He also didn't "attack" negative reviews. The source provided in the article itself makes that clear.
″Specifically, Pagliarulo attacked negative reviews asking for features common in more modern RPGs that were noticeably absent from Starfield.″
The source used in the article itself makes it clear that Emil isn't wrong about the process being hard, and that he perhaps stirred up the pot unnecessarily:
"Ultimately, Pagliarulo's not wrong. Even getting a small indie project from concept to launch is a Herculean feat, and as much as the "lazy developers" trope has taken hold in recent years, the reality is that just about everyone involved in making a game is fully committed and working hard to make it happen. It really is, as Pagliarulo said, just about a miracle that a lot of these games ever see the light of day."
The wording on Emil's article is unnecessarily aggressive, not to mention based on false information, directly feeding hateful discourse around game developers online. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 170.0.171.152 ( talk) 16:05, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
I would like to raise the following talk page topic for review:
/info/en/?search=Talk:Max_Lugavere#%22Known_for_Fringe_Dietary_Claims%22
To summarize, the statement in the article's infobox that Lugavere is primarily "Known for" specifically his "Fringe Dietary Claims" appears to be unsourced.
I believe we need a reliable source(s) that we can clearly attribute to the specific assertion of being primarily known for "fringe dietary claims" or the contentious statement should be revised/removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kalem014 ( talk • contribs) 18:01, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi, all - I've updated this page with more links and citations. Kindly suggest if there's something else that needs to be done. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sankalprawal ( talk • contribs) 04:41, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
The introduction to this article is filled with contentious and potentially libellous material which is very poorly sourced - almost exclusively from The Jewish Chronicle, a paper widely known for aggressive smears against it's political opponents.
Attempts to remove the material, as per the BLP policy, is repeatedly reverted by obviously disingenuous editors.
Please consider protecting this page from further vandalism and smears. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Peirik1 ( talk • contribs)
There is no consensus on whether The Jewish Chronicle is reliable for topics related to the British Left, Muslims, Islam, and Palestine/Palestinians; there is also a rough consensus it is biased in these topics.
The introduction to this article refers to Sunny Hostin as a journalist and I question that considering she never received a journalism degree, she never was a news anchor, or wrote for newspapers or magazines. She's been on TV as a political and social commentator and legal analyst. On her own website she refers to herself specially as being "widely known as a social commentator and has covered many of the major legal, political, and cultural community stories of today". [1] It's more appropriate to describe her as a social commentator and/or legal analyst than a journalist. I know there are several sources which describe her as a "journalist" but I can't find any sources with evidence of her journalism career. There needs to be a distinction between actual journalists and television personalities. The One I Left ( talk) 12:49, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

We have editors continually restoring assertions in the infobox that the motive of this was "Islamic extremism", implying the suspect has committed a crime, despite the fact that no conviction has been made. They base this on a video produced by a witness claiming the attacker spoke Arabic. The police investigating the incident have said they believe it is religious extremism but have declined to state the religion. There have not been any charges made yet, let alone a conviction. Can we have more eyes there please. -- DeFacto ( talk). 14:10, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Why is the recent revelation of her using Wikipedia to benefit her own narrative not being disclosed on her Wikipedia page? There are multiple sources across the internet, as well as video interviews where she admits to censoring facts she doesn't like.
Even the original creator has spoken about the blatant misinformation and how Wikipedia can no longer be a trusted source of factual information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23EE:2978:14CD:C09D:B454:97E0:5873 ( talk) 17:22, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

I'm reaching out for assistance regarding an ongoing edit war and potential BLP violation on Bryan Freedman. Despite clear resolution on the talk page there's been persistent reverting and re-adding of contentious content.
Here is a specific diff highlighting the issue: BLP violation
— Preceding unsigned comment added by Canadianthe ( talk • contribs)
I've twice restored the redirect at Walter Rhodes (murderer), following serious unsourced claims by editor User:WalterRhodesJr. A third revert would probably be allowable as a potential WP:BLP violation under WP:3RRNO, but taking it here seemed a better idea. Discussion at the editor's user talk is not currently making progress, and the article can't remain in its present state. The claims made are in direct contradiction to the sourced statement at target Jesse Tafero, which the same editor has also tried a few times to alter against the sources cited, in an apparently straightforward case of WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS.

This article is struggling with problems regarding sourced information about members with the names "Jessie Wagner" and "Tabitha King" joining and leaving, replacing member Helen Scott (who had COVID-19), and to prove that information, I began using henleystandard.co.uk and Instagram as sources. I am upset with User:SoulJapan's persistent removal of content and changing the name of Freddi Poole (even though her name is also spelled Freddie Pool). This has been going on for months and I have kept an eye on the page ever since 2023 because people continued to remove content, and it was semi-protected in December after I requested protection due to disruptive editing by IPs and persistent content removal.

Hey! Hope this is the right spot ... Seeking to make simple reference to a publicly-available document, signed by Oscar Isaac, in the profile of Oscar Isaac. No socks here ... but getting bulldozed + threatened by an 'editor'.
Here's the 1-liner, available from any corner of the internet - it makes no accusation or claim for any side, only stating what is publicly known - he signed a letter, for a desired outcome, on a particular subject, due to specific events :
In October 2023, Isaac signed an open letter for the " Artists4Ceasefire" campaign alongside other artists, urging President Joe Biden to push for a ceasefire and an end to the killing of civilians amid the 2023 Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip [1]
NB: The references - aside from the letter, which is NPR - to 'Artist4Ceasefire', 'Joe Biden', and the '2023 invasion of the Gaza Strip' all link within WIKI itself on their own / are held by WIKI.
Was immediately threatened by an editor claiming ownership of the profile (by tone + outright threat to permaban me), who said the sentence above is "contentious", that Wiki's "an encyclopedia, not FB or a news site".
It's a public document that was purposefully sent to the White House/President. Yet this editor immediately threatened me with a permanent block just for *this single citation* - and I'm brand new, so there's no possiblity of "past differences".
Aggressive threatening of noobs aside, the challenge with their claim, is that tens of thousands of other WIKI profiles have the same/similar poli-social content with no hinderance ... permitting only what specific editor may prefer in a given page, on a platform that supposed to be "open, factual", an "encyclopedia of knowledge", is well, troublesome.
If it's not permitted to plainly reference actions they've chosen to publicly support - and do so with no ill inent/malice - then all public figures would need to have their profiles reduced to Name, DOB, Work history only:
Michael Moore's profile must be emptied, and Mark Ruffalo, Michael Stipe, Bassem Youssef, Jon Stewart, Jimmy Carter, Nelson Mandela, Jon Oliver, George Galloway, Amy Schumer, Angelina Jolie, Michael Rapaport, Cate Blanchett, Ben Affleck, Chelsea Handler, Bradley Cooper, Bob Odenkirk, Bret Gelman, Debra Messing, Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins, Sharon Osbourne, Chris Pine, Jerry Seinfeld, Sinead O'Connor ... and so on, and so on.
Countless other WIKIs, artist/non-artist alike, reference social & policital efforts ... if a public person (Hollywood A/B lister, no less) has of their own accord chosen to put their name publicly on X document, it should not be prohibited from mere mention, since it's already on record with the rest of the world. Hiding it from Wiki could imply preferential treatment one way or another, no?
Sorry for the ramble I'm still getting used to this space, and am very confused by a person gatekeeping a stranger's own previously published actions being cited with zero harmful content & zero intent to harm.

Please see this edit request about this article's Money laundering investigations section.
