That requires people be familiar with such things on an international scale. In practice most such sources will be the result of people using the first thing that comes up on Google that looks like a news source (and the daily mail does rank so well these days) rather than any deliberate attempt to use tabloids as references. Other than getting a database report to list every link to such a site within a ref tag there isn't much we can do about it. -- geni _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
