Is YouTube a reliable source? edit

Is YouTube a reliable source if it is from a reliable channel like the RISE conference? 68.5.55.175 (talk) 22:16, 22 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

The youtube channel of a reliable publisher can be a reliable source. That channel is a fine source for confirming existence -- that the RISE conference announced a debate happened. You should look for better secondary sources (like a news article or other review) to confirm notability -- i.e., that this was relevant to robotics, or to anyone outside of that event. – SJ + 23:51, 22 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Your main paragraph exists verbatim on LittleSis.[1] Maybe you and that page share a source? Don't copy text from other websites, and do cite your sources. – SJ + 23:51, 22 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

That, I believe, was actually from Wikipedia's page on Hanson robotics, in the paragraph about Han. 2600:8802:3A0B:3000:854:D96C:7603:4D8E (talk) 01:32, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Ah, of course. Thanks for the catch. The most common source of false positives for cv-checks. – SJ + 02:33, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

After the submission was declined I couldn't see the actual thing, only the comments on it edit

Is there any way to fix this? 2600:8802:3A0B:3000:854:D96C:7603:4D8E (talk) 01:42, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

There was a formatting error - I fixed it. LittlePuppers (talk) 01:43, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Deletion of this page edit

Please do not delete this page. I am trying to find multiple reliable secondary sources about Han. There are many; I think he does meet the general notability guidelines but I understand that the lack of sources prompted the declination the first and second times. 2600:8802:3A0B:3000:854:D96C:7603:4D8E (talk) 17:28, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

It seems safe from deletion now, if short. See if you can compile a timeline of notable events involving Han and its development or public responses, since the year of its debut. Robotics changes quickly, if you can't find recent sources it might be better to write some of this in the past tense ("as of 2015" when most of these stories were written). An evaluation of its capabilities and development, outside the PR-like announcements at conferences and tech fairs, would be an improvement. – SJ + 13:17, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
