 * Greetings, Tacyarg—
 * I recently attempted to edit the article on Warren Forrest to more accurately reflect statements Norma Countryman made about what specifically transpired during her abduction in an interview she recently gave to the program "Unseen." She didn't make them to me, nor have I done any personal research on the topic. I just wanted to clarify her accounting. One issue I'm having is learning how to make inline citations and adding references. Had I done that, would my edits have satisfied the five pillars?

 * Oh ok, apologies, I hadn't heard of the programme Unseen (doesn't look as if we have an article on it?) and read "personal interview" as a interview she had given to you. The guidance on reliable sources at WP:PUBLISHED says that broadcast media may be reliable, if produced by "a reputable party". I don't honestly know whether Unseen would meet this requirement. You might want to ask at the Teahouse. Worth having a look at the guidance on biographies of living people too, as the standard of referencing needs to be higher for these. You could also ask on the Talk page of Warren Forrest. Best wishes, Tacyarg (talk) 21:20, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
