Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Replika, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Belbury (talk) 08:36, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
- My edits contained no original research. This source is as reliable and public as they come (the fact that it's in Finnish does not make it less reliable) : it's the Finnish national Public Broadcasting Company, investigative article written by their Foreign News Journalist. The two links leading to Russian job ads were also lifted from the YLE article. Kekkone (talk) 13:26, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for clarifying! I hadn't realised the job ads were mentioned in the article, and misinterpreted the paragraph as a WP:SYNTHESIS of primary sources being combined to imply a narrative, where the YLE was only being used to source a building being vacant. If all the claims can be sourced from the YLE article then that's the only source it needs. Belbury (talk) 13:50, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
- Yep, sorry, my bad, shouldn't have quoted the job ad links separately... Kekkone (talk) 14:03, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
