Review of revision 4731543 [Not ready]

[edit]
I guess you meant federally indicted. Heavy Water (talk) 01:58, 9 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Heavy Water Corrected. But WaPo opens in incognito for me, and the NYT's article is viewable with a free account. LFaraone (talk) 03:32, 9 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

For the NYT, yes, but you get a limited number of articles from a free account, so it's not like Reuters, which is unlimited for a free account — so Reuters is allowed but the NYT, especially recently, isn't because one can interpret "request payment to view content on the site" as including "request payment from anyone, including a person who's exceeded their limit, to view content on the site", cf. Brianmc, "[t]he rationale behind rejecting paywalled sources is that nobody should need to give away any personal data, or actually pay, to verify the content of a Wikinews article" at Talk:Over 270 civilians reported killed from shelling in Syria. And a reader is in principle a verifier, in line with the idea of being transparent about sourcing. As for WaPo, the rule must be one free article a month — this is the first article of theirs I've accessed this month, and when I tried opening a second I got a choice between limited free registration or a subscription. So I recommend replacing both with completely-free sources. Heavy Water (talk) 05:36, 9 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
I've replaced it with sources to CNN and Politico. LFaraone (talk) 11:08, 9 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
@LFaraone: Also, can you please add the focal event's "when" to the lead? Heavy Water (talk) 17:14, 9 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Heavy Water Done. LFaraone (talk) 18:19, 9 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
As an aside -- NYT / WaPo allow "gifting" links. Would such links be suitable, or not really because they probably have some internal limit on number of viewers. LFaraone (talk) 18:24, 9 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
If there's a limit, then I would think so. BTW, the indictment was just unsealed. Heavy Water (talk) 18:32, 9 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
I heavily expanded it to include information from the indictment. LFaraone (talk) 06:52, 10 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Heavy Water I wanted to add File:Classified intelligence material found during search of Mar-a-Lago.jpg to the article, either as a supplement or replacing the existing image, but I wasn't sure if that was OK to do while you were reviewing it. LFaraone (talk) 23:28, 10 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, it's recommended to not edit during a review to avoid edit conflicts. I just added it. Heavy Water (talk) 23:52, 10 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
