The values and distinctions you are trying to stress are so far outside my Overton window that they're not just out the Overton door and down the Overton block--they're 40 miles away on the interstate from the town of Overton. --Mike Godwin[1]
You can sway a thousand men by appealing to their prejudices quicker than you can convince one man by logic.
About me

I am old, British, married to the world's most tolerant woman, and have two adult children. I was an amateur baritone prior to developing debilitatingtinnitus. I do not tolerate racism, or any kind of bigotry. Being British, I have the British sense of humour (correctly spelled) and I absolutelydo not have an accent, since I went to athousand-year-old school. Everything I do or say could be wrong. I try always to be open to that possibility. If you think I am wrong, please just talk to me nicely, and it can all be sorted out like grown-ups.
On politicsSeeUser:JzG/Politics for a statement of my views.
{{duses}} produces an insource search and a Linksearch search. The former is flaky in my experience but does have the benefit of focusing on mainspace.{{Link summary}} is the canonical search but produces a lot of extraneous items such as links on other wikis that are not always useful when managing non-spam bad sources.{{deprecated publisher}} and{{deprecated journal}} help with fake journals.
Includes many bogus sites includiong Royal Ark.
Almost all links to this domain are spam. Pass 1: Remove or whitelist existing refs to .xyz (244 links found in mainspace as of 220-16-10).
These publishers are on Beall's list, feel free to suggest others with DOI roots I can work on.

{{DOI|10.3389}}{{DOI|10.36648}}An on-demand print house, masquerading as an academic publisher:
Multiple additions of citations to the same author from predatory and other journals, by multiple editors with no history other than adding that material (i.e. probable citation spamming):
TheMedia Bias Chart is widely referenced in reliable sources. It appears to be accepted as broadly correct.
It has two axes: partisanship and reliability. In Wikipedia terms, the following seems to be true:
As a principle I would have zero problem with the following:
Note that Alternet is in the same box as the NY Post, Daily Mail and Daily Wire here. I agree with that. Neither are appropriate sources and both could be blacklisted: nothing of value would be lost. In fact I would also include Daily Kos, Second Nexus, OAN and Fox News. It's highly unlikely that any of these would be the sole source for any genuinely significant fact.
Also sites with no evidence ofWP:RS:
We should never source anything directly to a think-tank, their function ispolicy-based evidence making and is the absolute antithesis of everything Wikipedia stands for.
