Just reports

[edit]

From what i've seen right now its just anonymous sources saying that she's the pick, but shouldnt this article wait until there is real confirmation by the president later on saturday?

From the NYT reference article "“I haven’t said it was her, but she is outstanding,” Mr. Trump told reporters who asked about Judge Barrett’s imminent nomination at Joint Base Andrews outside Washington after CNN and other news outlets reported on his choice."

The selection has been reported by reliable sources (NYT, Axios, WaPo, NPR, AP News, Barron's, Atlantic). KidAd talk 01:12, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
But Trump has not officialy nominated anyone, it's just anonymous sources saying this, even if it's true this article should wait until there's an actual official announcement. Even the title of the article is technically wrong, it's not a nomination until someone is nominated Lochglasgowstrathyre (talk) 01:13, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Lochglasgowstrathyre; the press reports say that Trump intends to nominate Judge Barrett, and he hasn't officially nominated her - and if an outlet says that Trump has already nominated someone, that's not accurate. Until then, the existence of this article doesn't make sense. For all we know, he might nominate someone else, though I have my doubts about that possibility. Once he nominates someone, I'm sure the articles in question would be revised as appropriate. Andrew11374265 (talk) 07:25, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Do we need a separate article on this? Is the coverage on Amy Coney Barrett not adequate?--Ipigott (talk) 11:35, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
