Hacking incident

The rationales for deleting the sourced signal hijacking/Tomalski content are all invalid. The cited source is not Primary. See WP:PRIMARY. WP:N is a guideline for inclusion of content in Wikipedia and has nothing to do with sources. WP:TRIVIA is irrelevant on its face. - Who is John Galt? ✉ 16:10, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Identification cited to The Interruption

Some edit warring going on about the podcast The Interruption, which I guess said they've determined who did this. I don't agree that a podcast is necessarily an unreliable source, but I don't see any reason why this podcast should be considered reliable (per WP:RS). There's almost no coverage at all of this podcast that I can see. A search for '"the interruption" "Tommy Trelawny"' returns three hits: two press releases and the Apple Podcasts link. We need evidence for why this is a reliable source. Ideally, we'd also include a citation to another independent reliable source reporting on this particular fact from the podcast, too. Unless something can be found other than the podcast itself, I think we need to err on the side of omission per WP:RS. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 16:13, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for discussing. I've asked for more opinions regarding reliability at the RSN [1]. - Who is John Galt? ✉ 20:44, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
