Has a bunch of references on the Chinese article which someone probably needs to go through, and probably more out there as well. - Indefensible (talk) 01:02, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It is still a significant issue though Sharontse121 (talk) 01:08, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

the all sources used in the article are reliable Chinese sources. You can't say that it is not reliable by saying that it has no WP:RS English sources, this is discrimination Sharontse121 (talk) 01:10, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody above had said or implied that sources in languages other than English can't be reliable. Please avoid straw men and other kinds of misleading claims, see also below. Regards, HaeB (talk) 15:47, 13 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep No justification as to why the sources used are not reliable. Sources are not required to be in English. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 15:00, 13 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom and because alongside other dubious or outright false claims by the article's author, at least some of the references they offered do not support the claims they were cited for. I spot-checked two of citations in this revision: [4] did not support the claim in the article as written. [2] actually said pretty much the opposite of what Sharontse121 claimed (Weibo denied that its traffic had dropped, also, the source does not even mention the Wikipedia article's subject). As for the other sources cited, the burden is on the author to explain why they should be considered WP:REPUTABLE (i.e. having a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy).
