Why three articles from three different reporters within three days?

I have know idea what the reality is with Leblouh. If it exists, it seems tragic. But could it be a hoax? The three articles referenced in the external links were all published in the last week of February 2009, by three different reporters.

Why?

How did this idea arise among the three? How do we know the three articles aren't linked by some underlying agent who is coordinating, or encouraging, the three whether those reporters know it or not?

The local reporters' names are different in each article. Could be that someone held a press conference about it. SlimVirgin ^{talk|contribs} 02:13, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dead link

Footnote nr 2 is a dead link. Idunius (talk) 11:21, 28 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Gavage

"Gavage" is a French word used in several meanings. It can mean both "feed" and "force-feed". You will need to select the translation that you think fits best. The word "Gavage" is bad english.Jesper7 (talk) 11:34, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Content Gap: Forced Feeding

The force feeding of young girls and women is a form of violence against women that is not as talked about. There appears to me to be a content gap here, as it states that it occurs in one place but sources are cited from many different locations and cultures. There is also no information about the health effects that the practice may have or the current or past levels of impact on youth. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gwen.majorwilliams (talk • contribs) 21:06, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article is non-standard in that a large number of resources, mainly journalistic articles, are listed as external links, but it isn't clear that the information within them has been synthesised into the body of the text. That would be one place to start. Or you could go straight to more scholarly sources. Carbon Caryatid (talk) 10:50, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How many of the sources here are ones from the early 2000s?

Going through this article, it seems like a lot of the sources are ones from the early 2000s; only 14 of the 34 sources used are from after 2010, and some of those are not even from after 2015.—Ineffablebookkeeper (talk) ({{ping}} me!) 19:41, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
