[edit]

Even the title of the source contradicted the statement in the article - only the subset of creators (press, internet portals, non-youtube creators or youtube creators known from other works weren't included) were included in this list. The source vaguely states that they included YouTubers, i.e. "creators known mostly from YouTube", which is very unclear. I might guess that he's known by most Poles from being correspondent of Polish Television TVP, not from being YouTube creator - and Wirtualne Media seems to have a different guess. And because inclusion on the list is just basing on guesses, I don't think we can assume it's a real market research. That's why I not only clarified it (about being YouTuber top list, not general internet), but I also added "citation needed". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.69.127.250 (talk) 00:02, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

the self-proclamation being obviously in contradiction with Polish election laws

Rewrite based on reliable sources

[edit]

It looks like this article has seen significant expansion since May, but much of that is based on unreliable and primary sources. However, even looking back at the pre-May article, there aren't many claims that aren't supported by unreliable or primary sources. I suspect we might have to identify which sources are useful and start all over. Woodroar (talk) 18:26, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

So I've been going through the sources and there's not much we can use. This wirtualnemedia.pl source says that "Max Kolonko - MaxTV" is a popular YouTube channel, but that's about it. This other wirtualnemedia.pl source is marked as an opinion piece and was written by an editor at the site, so it may not pass WP:BLP. Everything else currently used in the article is either unreliable or some kind of primary source: the subject's social media, their movement's site, etc. I also see a few awards being mentioned, but besides the Kisiel Prize, they don't appear to be notable awards—and more importantly, there's no reliable, independent coverage of Kolonko winning those awards. Likewise, Kolonko contributing to HuffPost is mentioned, but that's only important if other sources call it out. I do see more coverage at Google News but I'm unsure which (if any) of those sources would be considered reliable. Woodroar (talk) 15:08, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I rewrote it based on reliable, third-party published sources. In addition to the above source about his YouTube channel, I also found one verifying that he won the Kisiel Prize. Woodroar (talk) 23:39, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Btw. you've just canceled one of the most if not the most prominent journalist and personality of Poland. 185.25.123.167 (talk) 19:00, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure how "the most prominent journalist and personality of Poland" with 138k Twitter followers and 581k YouTube subscribers and 671k Facebook followers and his own political movement is cancelled, but of course he's entitled to his opinion. Perhaps one of his followers will find some reliable, independent sources we can use! Google News would be a good place to start. Woodroar (talk) 22:23, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
