Reliable source?

What makes What-When-How.com a reliable source? It looks like a self-published guide to a few things a few people have some personal knowledge about with no editorial oversight. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:59, 11 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If a statement doesn't look like a contentious or made-up fact, it often takes seconds to google a more reliable source. Anyway, it looks like it's been replaced already. Well done, Gerda. Bermicourt (talk) 17:37, 11 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I know but even that doesn’t appear to have fixed the situation of concern, particularly with this article being featured on the main page. Hence my polite note here. Well done TRM. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:13, 11 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
