Reliability of a Chinese source? (Sohu)
editHi, I'm currently doing non-English source searching for more Genshin Impact characters. When I was searching for Venti in particular, I came across this article from Sohu However, that isn't a vetted source on the English Wikipedia, and I can't check the Chinese wiki for what sources it considers reliable. Has Sohu been discussed, and is it a reliable source if so? λ NegativeMP1 00:08, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- Sohu is a comprehensive news portal akin to Yahoo! News, hosting content from numerous news agencies, journalists, and writers. So, it's recommended to assess the credibility of the individual author instead. The article in question is authored by ACG Dimensional Fan (ACG次元饭), a subsidiary of Game Daily (遊戲日報). According to zh:WP:VG/S, Game Daily is categorized as a "Situational" source: "The content of Game Daily is considered to be marginally reliable, and should be replaced with a higher-quality source where possible." So I guess citing that is fine, but not recommended for establishing notability. Supergrey1 (talk) 04:59, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
