Content not supported by citations

I am concerned about what appears to be WP:OR, with a non-specific reference tacked on. I've fixed one, but now after identifying another sequence, I invite the incumbent editor Curb Safe Charmer to respond. This change states: "...after handing over to Island Energy...in accordance with their standard operating procedure...". This is not mentioned in the ITV video accompanying this prose as a citation. The news item is dated 14th, whereas the edit states the video to be 12th? Unreliable source?--82.13.47.210 (talk) 02:10, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As I surmised, video content appears not to be supported by Wayback machine - this appears to be the the archived version of the 12th content, captured on 13th.--82.13.47.210 (talk) 02:23, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A news bulletin was not an ideal source as that page only shows the most recent one and it was a WP:PRIMARY source. I have replaced it with a persistent link to a WP:SECONDARY source. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 10:01, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
