Thinkspot

  • ... that the banning of Carl Benjamin, known as Sargon of Akkad, from Patreon led to the creation of a new crowdfunding platform, Thinkspot? Source: "In a video chat with conservative comedian and pundit Dave Rubin, Peterson discussed the news that Sargon of Akkad had been suspended from Patreon for off-platform behavior and how it highlighted the need for a “permanent” alternative to Patreon."[1]
    • ALT1: ... that psychology professor and Youtube personality Jordan Peterson developed his own free speech-oriented crowdfunding platform, Thinkspot? Source: " So Peterson is launching Thinkspot, self-described as “a collaborative community where individuals can explore and exchange ideas in a thoughtful and respectful manner.

  • Not a review, but "Walter Benjamin" should be Carl Benjamin (and the article should only be linked once). — Bilorv (talk) 00:44, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
Thanks! And thank for your edits on the article. What do you mean when you say that the article should only be linked one? I think that I link it once in the initial hook and once in the alternative hook. Am I misunderstanding? Jlevi (talk) 14:58, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
Date length and hook all OK. I am striking alt1 because it reads a little too much like a WP:PROMO. QPQ not needed as this is his first nomination. No close paraphrasing. Good to go. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 07:56, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
