Help me!

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Please help me with... Hi, I have sourced an article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Thomas_Schoenberger#Thomas_Schoenberger using an academic book published by Stanford University, articles from Billboard, SFGate, HBO and Vice documentaries, sworn testimony in court documents, and legitimate business websites like venerable publisher Simon and Schuster. There are multiple sources, some of which are used in related articles on Wikipedia. It was rejected for not having reliable sources.

Please let me know what I can do to improve this article. Thank you. PatSeeYou (talk) 12:19, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not really the proper use of the Help Me tag... I would advise posting your question to the AfC Helpdesk - Rich^T|C|E-Mail 23:11, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please clarify

Thank you for your response. Allow me to clarify the offending links:

The Youtube source I cited is cited as such Cicada 3301 ref 17 "Cracking the Code of Cicada 3301". YouTube. Great Big Story. Retrieved 23 May 2020 (though I changed the date to reflect my having re-watched it).

Had it not been so cited I would not have done so, and would have gone straight to IRC to ask how to do it. Is there a way you prefer television programs to be cited? Is there a better way to cite television programs that have aired previously but are not archived on their originating channel? Happy to cite this legitimate documentary the best possible way. Would imbd be better/ I also have imdbpro, but not everyone can access that, so it is really not fair to use it as a source?

FYI, I would never quote some Youtuber blabbing, but "Cracking the Code.." was seriously a documentary, and really good, too. Thanks! The wordpress links I use are sworn depositions in court cases which have been cited in part elsewhere for example, by The Daily Beast. Should I add additional links to Trellis, the lawsuit archive site?

The therealsamizdat is backed up by other sources like the The Great Big Story documentary above, news sources, etc.

I removed the weebly links.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks!
