::As I said, it is ''not'' considered "generally reliable". It no longer has that status in this area. The close was "reliability disputed", it's now yellow on [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources]] with the summary that {{tq|"In regards to transgender issues and gender-critical views, the reliability of The Daily Telegraph is disputed"}}, and it is distinguished from The Daily Telegraph as a {{tq|"generally reliable"}} source in other fields. Hence, it's a ''dubious'' source, especially when it's used to promote a contentious narrative (e.g. by portraying this group as something else than an anti-trans group, in a way more positive light than other sources), in the first paragraph of the introduction to boot. We should use sources of higher quality there. There may be some situations where it's possible to use The Daily Telegraph as a source (e.g. for uncontroversial information or quotes, as opposed to promoting a gender-critical group and its narrative), but this is not one of them. --[[User:Amanda A.

:::After the lukewarm result for the Telegraph, are you going to try to get all those other news sources that have "faced extensive criticism for transphobia" as you noted above to be declared unreliable (or at least "disputed") on this topic as well? Maybe eventually the only "reliable sources" will be Pink News and academic papers on Queer Theory? [[User:Dtobias|*Dan T.*]] ([[User talk:Dtobias|talk]]) 22:36, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
