Since 2017, Wikipedia editors have compiled a list of news sources from which articles are highly likely to employ systematic bias, lack professional editing and/or journalistic standards, regularly misrepresent sources, and/or fabricate information.
While its list is by no means a complete list of publications with the aforementioned problems, it has helped make Wikipedia articles more reliable by basing them off of sources covering the same events and information from a more objective and factual point of view.
To make Lemmy news communities better than their Reddit counterparts, I think avoiding links to those sources in favor of more reliable alternatives would be worthwhile.
Apologies; fixed it in the main post, so the crossposts should be fixed as well now.
Thank you very much, I see that happen all the time so I like to have that message ready as a copy-paste. It’s actually really interesting to see the variety of reactions I get from people when I post it. I also want to add it left me really confused this one time since I really wasn’t expecting a mobile link so I thought something had gone wrong with my account settings and changed it back to the newer vector skin.
