# The Wikipedia page to do with [[David Seaman (American journalist)]] was locked and setup for deletion in December 2016 due to his investigation into [[PizzaGate]], as indicated on the Wikipedia talk page.<ref>[http://www.oneangrygamer.net/2016/12/youtube-censors-pizzagate-videos-trump-staff-fired-following-pizzagate-tweet/18427/ YouTube Censors PizzaGate Videos; Trump Staff Fired Following PizzaGate Tweet]</ref>Before his page was deleted, some editors such as [[Simtropolitan]] suggested using more reliable sources, writing, ''“if nothing else his very public firing from the Huffington Post at the height of the election warrants keeping this, but only as a stub if sources like ZeroHedge keep being cited. Reliable sources do exist, he has worked with networks that are not [fringe sources], don’t be a reactionary and cite blogs that have “Tyler Durden” as their author. Even if you want to make a villain out of him for Pizzagate, people much less relevant to current events like David Icke have long, well-cited articles here. I am not saying that Seaman is the same as Icke, but this is relevant to current events. The article can and should be improved upon however.”'' David Seaman's dismissal from [[Huffington Post]] was also covered by [[Real Clear Politics]], along with receiving coverage from [[The Daily Caller]]. However, even those weren’t considered reliable enough for the Wikipedia censors.<ref>[http://www.oneangrygamer.net/2016/12/wikipedia-deletes-david-seaman-entry-following-his-pizzagate-coverage/19050/ Wikipedia Deletes David Seaman Entry Following His PizzaGate Coverage]</ref>
