Please link the actual blog referenced in the article: https://kabochan.blog.jp/archives/51831907.html?ref=popular_article_slidelist&id=7331795-5154399 as a source to the death of Kabosu.

Countless news sources mistakenly reported her death in 2023. Also, sourcing a claim of a blog post with a news article about the blog post, and not the actual blog post, is not a reliable or trustworthy source, and frankly doesn't make much sense at all.

It would surprise many here that the New York Times is unreliable and untrustworthy. Of course, all sources can make mistakes, but did that paper fall for the 2023 misinformation? They are a serious quality newspaper with a proper editorial team. Citing them meets WP's policy requirement for verifiable reliable sources, preferably secondary. That said, the blog should acceptable in accordance with WP:ABOUTSELF. In my view it would be fine to use both in this case. - Davidships (talk) 15:22, 26 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
