Russian shills use anti western memes.[1]
This was reverted. Please discuss. Benjamin (talk) 20:19, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
- Sorry, I meant to respond earlier but got caught up. The thing is, I'm not seeing the connection in the source. The source makes no mention of shills, and the only mention it makes of memes is that it discusses the existence of a repository of memes and other images that includes pro-Russian work. It doesn't discuss how they are used, just that they exist. Another article from The Guardian is linked to from that one, but it is focused on trolling. Either way, it only mentions the images briefly, and is mostly focused on the forum posts. So I'm not sure why the brief mention of using images for trolling would be highlighted here. - Bilby (talk) 11:53, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
- They are paid to promote a viewpoint online. Isn't that the definition of a shill? Benjamin (talk) 13:25, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
Here's another article that talks about Russian shills using memes, but it doesn't use the word shill. Benjamin (talk) 10:41, 26 November 2017 (UTC)
- It makes a single reference to a single image. My problem is that there is very little connecting memes to shills, and even less showing that this is significant enough to be highlighted on its own. - Bilby (talk) 03:03, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
