Even if you don't like a person that is no excuse to link to AI-generated schlock Medium articles (which is just a blogging site with zero journalistic standards and should only really be linked to in the first place if the author has verifiable credentials). Doing that just makes our wiki worse, especially as our mission is to debunk said bullshit. Plutocow (talk) 07:27, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

I'm actually a fan of BadEmpanada (as evidenced by my username) and the link I cited was allegedly written by an Israeli journalist named Tamar Ben-Ami. I didn't come across that article of my own accord, as someone actually sent it to me on my Discord. The reason I cited the article was to address the controversies surrounding BadEmpanada and was not made to attack him. I also literally referred to the accusations listed in the article as allegations, due to the out-of-context attacks against him. I actually cited those arguments with the opposite intentions.

The article obviously reads as AI-written and putting it into a tool to detect AI confirms it. Even just to sum up other people's arguments using an AI-generated source isn't it and you should look at dubious sources that you get on Discord with more skepticism.
