Talks, articles, interviews, and other research references

Is there any way within Misplaced Pages guidelines to include links to her articles, talks, and interviews? For example:

  • Articles that she wrote for the Stamford Advocate.
  • Her TEDx talk, and talks that she gave at a Rotary luncheon, and at a library.
  • Her interviews on the Ralph Retort, and on various YouTube channels as Red Pill Black.

She also helped organize a 21st Century Dads event.

According the announcement for the Rotary luncheon, in April 2017, she was working as an investor relations analyst for an investment manager in Manhattan. JimHabegger (talk) 05:45, 22 November 2017 (UTC)

What's the problem with the text on her anti-Trump past?

An editor mass-removed text (and other changes) without substantive reason. The author is not discredited, and Buzzfeed News is RS. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 00:18, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

Well I even left a comment on your talk page to be polite and you don't even have the courtesy to respond before reverting. Anyhow, there is a single article on the subject by a journalist who Vox indicates did poor research before writing an article (I assume you think Vox is reliable) and the article by Buzzfeed which even states "Owens did not immediately respond to requests for comment via email and Twitter, though she did stress in tweets earlier today that the writers for the site, called Degree180, were young. She also described the reporter as a "despicable creature." (She also accused BuzzFeed News, falsely, of "threatening" the former writers for the site.) Though Degree180 is now defunct, the Internet Archive has preserved much of its content — a mix of Thought Catalog–style personal essays, bloggy political musings, woke admonishments, and relationship advice. Many of the writers for Degree180, which Owens registered in 2015, were college students." and the Hill (whose source is Buzzfeed) states that "The news outlet noted that much of her own writing on the defunct website was personal and didn’t focus on politics". So you think your edit accurately captures the context? If she said it it would be one thing, but if someone else said it, it is not as relevant.Patapsco913 (talk) 00:29, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
Yes, and your comment was nonsense. The simple fact is that you mass-removed content, most of which was verified to you in the edit summary (e.g. https://archive.is/HeRaq and https://archive.is/7Z7Qc), under the false pretense that the RS can't be trusted and that the content might be inaccurate. That's indefensible. And what exactly is the purpose of that extended quote from the Buzzfeed piece? If you want to add more stuff from the Buzzfeed piece or the Hill, go ahead and do that. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 00:50, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
as far as the author of your article https://www.vox.com/2016/4/4/11355876/milo-yiannopoulos "Another good example is a piece BuzzFeed's Joseph Bernstein last year, alleging that Yiannopoulos was a "group effort": that he barely wrote any of his own material, and that a cadre of 44 interns were responsible for his stuff. It's an incredible charge — but it could very well have been prank on BuzzFeed. Yiannopoulos has publicly beefed with Bernstein before; it's entirely possible that he or his allies fed Bernstein false information that's designed to make him look stupid."Patapsco913 (talk) 00:40, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
There's nothing there about Bernstein doing poor research or that his reporting is unreliability. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 00:50, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
Do you know the difference between editor-in-chief and CEO? http://degree180.com/projects/#sthash.Wv7zWp77.dpbsPatapsco913 (talk) 00:51, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
