Overall: Nice article about someone who I can only assume we'll be seeing more of. Good to go. Schminnte (talk • contribs) 21:47, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Schminnte and Muboshgu: We have to figure out the very high Earwig scores first. Bruxton (talk) 15:55, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bruxton, those top results on Earwig, not just the top two, appear to be mirrors. They copied us, not vice versa. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:01, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict)

@Bruxton, I'm reaffirming this. From a closer look at the sites highlighted (30% and above), they are all either posted after the article was created, or pretty obvious mirrors of Wikipedia. I ran Earwig's at the time of the review, and didn't see any high scores. So, I think this is fine. Schminnte (talk • contribs) 16:09, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Schminnte and Muboshgu: thank you for the message I will take a closer look. Bruxton (talk) 16:12, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Schminnte and Muboshgu: looks like you are both right. The article starter should be flattered. Bruxton (talk) 16:15, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why is there no reference to the amount of far right influencers she followed before she started at Twitter? Why has that been blocked? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.25.122.120 (talk) 20:28, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Misinformation

Why does wikipedia have such a far left bias? You state this person follow far right accounts without any examples or further evidence. If this is worthy to include then provide evidence. 70.58.179.30 (talk) 04:42, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I do not see any reference to the article subject following far right accounts. Could you please let me know where this is in the article? glman (talk) 01:12, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see you removed it. It has been readded. This section appears to be directly sourced by WP:RS. glman (talk) 01:15, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
