Just ran IAbot and noticed that three Herald-Sun refs just link to the site's main page, "The state of our city is good", "O'Neal gives state of city, crime reduction plan", and "City of Durham launches mortgage assistance program" - searching the titles on the site I was unable to find the articles and fix the links. Are the articles only available via subscription or in the print edition? Waxworker (talk) 07:36, 26 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
I agree that there should be something about this. The article mentioned above was included on Business North Carolina's Daily Digest that was sent out to their subscriber list. which as of 2019 had over 11,000 subscribers.

It's been taken up also by the NC Observer, which is a serious, high-repute publication of statewide importance. The vast majority of the page's content is sourced to publications from the Triangle; I see no reason to exclude this particular content on that basis, particularly when multiple established reliable sources are reporting on this. — Red-tailed hawk(nest)16:05, 26 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
Just noting here that since this a controversy involving the mayor and some city council members, one would expect most of not all coverage to be regional at best. I get the hesitancy to avoid self-absorption, but if the new standard on including content about the activities of local officials (who’s notability has been established by wider media footprint) is that it’s been covered in non-local media, then we’d probably have to delete 90% of the content about all such officials on Wikipedia.-Indy beetle (talk) 17:20, 26 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
