"Some" angry about criticism of WHS

I would like to remove the sentences "This request for WHS to stop has angered some[who?] in the community. They[who?] are accusing the city of not doing enough and now trying to stop others from helping." The only place I've seen this has been in the WHS facebook group, and it doesn't seem noteworthy that "group members are angry that group was criticized". 07:08, 30 November 2021 (UTC) (creating a post here before just doing it because of page dispute warning)174.61.168.176 (talk) 07:09, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

”some” and “They” in this paragraph look like weasel words to me. Unless a reliable source backs up that community members are upset with the reaction to WHS, it’s best to remove that material. White 720 (talk) 15:41, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DoneAgree, so I've removed the sentence. Schazjmd (talk) 16:12, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Exposed" site in external links section?

The site We Heart Seattle Exposed has a collection of information about We Heart Seattle. As a self-published source I understand that it can't be used as a source of info on a living person. Is it appropriate to include under the external links heading? White 720 (talk) 14:59, 14 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It is not an appropriate external link per WP:ELNO #2 and #11. Schazjmd (talk) 15:29, 14 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Done Thanks. Best to leave it off. White 720 (talk) 15:57, 14 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reliability of Choe articles

As I write this, four of the sources are articles contributed by Jonathan Choe to KOMO News, the news operation of a Sinclair Broadcast Group-owned TV station serving the Seattle area. One of those articles appears to contradict itself; as User:Icemandrewfuss notes in this diff, Choe's video reporting and his written reporting, on the same web page, say different things about a person's housing situation. This reporter was later fired from KOMO News after sharing a video on Twitter that complimented the Proud Boys. I didn't find anything about Sinclair on WP:RSP, but given this reporter's contradictory reporting and poor judgement leading to his sudden ouster from the station, I'm wondering whether we should continue to consider his content to be a reliable source.

Major work on article?

This article reads like someone was really invested in writing it two years ago: play-by-play of 2021 and then just one paragraph showing they were still in existence in 2023? I would like to condense it heavily by turning all the loooong quotes into summary sentences, people can read the links if they want to know the name of the camp resident who saw Suarez one time. I started by making the chronological re-arrangement just now before I decided to create an account and check that nobody would hate it.

Done:4 months with no response, sounds like I'm ok to re-arrange. Future Contributor (talk) 02:16, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Youtube interview as source

I found a youtube interview of Dahlgren and Suarez that explains how they connected when she started the group, which I can't find any other sources for. Is a youtube video an ok source? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DncNJZ1WDwI Future Contributor (talk) 07:29, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To add: people involved? Related organizations?

Connections that look interesting enough to be added:

Andrea Suarez is running for an elected position, which doesn't deserve a whole page for her but should be mentioned here since she's also ED

One of their board members already has a wikipedia page (but I can't understand how he's connected to Seattle?) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Shellenberger

WHS announced they are one of the founding orgs in a new national group, which looks like two big organizations (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_Institute, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_Institute) and a lot of small local groups trying to end street camping. https://www.northamericarecovers.org/who-we-are

Where do these things fit in? Add them to the intro? Future Contributor (talk) 08:09, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
