Wikipedia talk:Advanced source searching

Google custom Search engine link is bad?

The sources for one search included POLITICO and bartelby.com but not PubMed. These are not good sources. Ran8dom9 (talk) 00:35, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

What sources are used in the Reliable Source custom Google search engine? ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{Blaze Wolf#6545} 13:50, 20 March 2023 (UTC)

I can't find a list but according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:A_Quest_For_Knowledge#Your_Reliable_Sources_custom_search_engine it seems to have been made by @A_Quest_For_Knowledge. RayScript (talk) 17:17, 20 March 2023 (UTC)

According to a more recent discussion, user Barkeep49 has access to the list. Dexxor (talk) 08:42, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

I think there might be more than one version of this floating around. For the version I made I am the only contributor to it. It has definitely not been recently updated (though I did just remove CNET). Here is the complete list of what it currently searches.

Hi, I'm curious as to who maintains the RSSE search engine. Bartleby shouldn't be included in those sources as it's mostly a collection of undergraduate and high school student essays. ~ F4U (talk • they/it) 18:29, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

Reliable Sources Search Engine

@User:A Quest For Knowledge and @Northamerica1000, do you know if the Reliable Sources Search Engine is being maintained? Superb Owl (talk) 21:34, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Additional general reliable sources search engine

@Barkeep49, do you know if this search engine that you had added back in 2019 to Perennial Sources article is being maintained? Superb Owl (talk) 21:37, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

@Superb Owl it has not been updated in quite some time and has been towards the top of my to do list - maybe even for today - for a while now. Barkeep49 (talk) 15:44, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

@Barkeep49 I went ahead and moved it from Perennial sources over to this page alongside all the other custom search engines I could find to make it easier to get a broader view of all the engines out there and improve collaboration. Do you have a project page for it by chance?
I've also been helping Wikipedia Reference Search update their engine as well, so let me know if I can help with yours too (I published a full list of reliable sources that I'm using in my engine here) Superb Owl (talk) 16:14, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

I just saw your list above of the 56 sources you included - the only one that is no longer generally reliable is Fox News but the others are still generally reliable. Do you know how much traffic the search engine is getting? Superb Owl (talk) 04:09, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
