@Di (they-them) and Skyshifter: Hold it. What makes Vice and the Mirror reliable?--Laun chba ller 17:36, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Launchballer: Both Vice and Mirror are listed on WP:RSP as having no consensus regarding reliability. For the purposes that they are used for in this article however, I think that they are reliable. Mirror is simply serving as a secondary source reporting on statistics of a website, XHamster, which published its own data. Meanwhile the sources from Vice feature interviews as well as information about the online community. Di (they-them) (talk) 21:03, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
