Yep, that's me.

Use legitimate sources from scholars, not other encyclopedias.
A bunch of the sources used on Wikipedia are from other encyclopedias like Britannica and Biography, which don't provide their own sources and have editors like Wikipedia. Use references from legitimate scholars, i.e. people who spend their careers researching these things as a career, wherever possible (academic lectures on Youtube, books, journals). If any of you are not familiar with JJ McCullough's video on Wikpedia then I recommend watching Mr. Beat reacting to JJ's video on disliking Wikipedia, which I think provides a better viewpoint than JJ's video itself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SnxQolfxRw

At the end of the day, Wikipedia is a weird site. Not for the faint of heart, unless you're a charismatic politican like Machiavelli or Augustus. Yourlocallordandsavior (talk) 02:28, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
