== Lukashenko articles on Belarusian Misplaced Pages ==

This was posted to my talk page, but I don't speak any of the relevant languages and am not in a postion to help.

{{talkquote|1=
'''Issues on be-tarask'''

Hey there! Thought I'd message you about some concerns of mine regarding the lack of neutrality on the be-tarask Misplaced Pages. ...

Currently, on ] says in part:
:{{!xt|Alexander Lukashenko ... is the head of the Russian occupation administration, a puppet, pro-Russian, authoritarian leader of Belarus who holds power by rigging elections and terrorizing Belarusians with financial, military, and informational support from Russia. ... On April 21, Russian President Vladimir Putin mentioned Belarus in the context of an alleged FSB attempt to overthrow the Lukashenko regime as a Russian-controlled territory in which Russia would determine what was a coup and what was not.}}
(At least, according to Google Translate). A similar descriptor is given on (which also exists in Ukrainian, but seems to use more neutral language).

There also appears to be a article (does not exist in any other language, including standard Belarusian), which says:
:{{!xt|The Russian occupation of Belarus is the de facto Russian occupation of Belarus, an open demonstration of which took place on February 24, 2022, when the Russian invasion of Ukraine took place, including from the territory of Belarus. The Russian occupation administration is a puppet regime of Lukashenko, its head is the proclaimed "president" Alexander Lukashenko. One of the main measures taken by the Russian authorities (the Russian Empire, the USSR, the Russian Federation) and its occupation administrations at different times is the continuous violent Russification of Belarusians. The term "Russian occupation of Belarus" first appeared in the autumn of 1917.}}
This seems to be promoting false histories and original research (Lukashenko is pro-Russian and democracy doesn't really exist in the country, but it is not an "occupation" in the conventional sense, and the link to 1917 appears novel).

These are just two that caught my eye. I don't know whether this is limited to a few articles, or whether it is a more ingrained issue of ideological bias on the Taraškievica wiki in a similar vein to the ]. Notably, ] is spoken by the Belarusian diaspora, who I suspect are statistically more likely to be anti-regime. —] (]) 14:59, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

User script to detect unreliable sources

Main page: User:Headbomb/unreliable

I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Misplaced Pages. The idea is that it takes something like

  • John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (John Smith "" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.)

and turns it into something like

It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}.

The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.

Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.
