Mike Pompeo and using Think Progress as a reliable source for a WP:BLP

I just want to let you know that i removed your sources for Think Progress in the Mike Pompeo article. As Think Progress is a political group blog it is not a reliable source. Content added to a biography of a living person needs to be sourced to a reliable source and for contentious content it should have multiple reliable sources. The content that you added that used Think Progress as a source will be removed unless someone adds reliable sourced. If you would like to keep the content you added from being removed than feel free to add reliable sources with citations. With Thanks, King of Nothing (talk) 07:31, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Just to let you know, regarding your subsequent edits to this same article, YouTube is not a reliable source for any article, especially a biography of a living person. User Arbor8 (talk ● contribs) has fixed the article and removed content that either was poorly sourced or not of a neutral point of view. With Thanks, King of Nothing (talk) 03:48, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

I did not remove the content in that article, User Arbor8 (talk ● contribs) did, for the reasons he/she cited in his/her edit summary and as he/she explained in the following section. All I did was remove the references to Think Progress because of the reasons I stated above and in my edit summary. But you are wrong about YouTube, YouTube is not a reliable source (even if it's Mike Pompeo's YouTube Channel and videos of him, because of WP:PRIMARY, you want to find reliable secondary sources.

Mike Pompeo, more generally

I've rolled back your recent edits to Mike Pompeo as they are decidedly non-neutral, promote a point of view, and frequently engage in coatracking. Please familiarize yourself with WP:NPOV before editing further. Arbor8 (talk) 14:49, 9 April 2014 (UTC)
