357: 329: 296: 1140:. I am very sad when my efforts to contribute were not approved and judged as spam when this is only the first time I want to spread the culture of Vietnamese lottery to the world. This is a traditional lottery website in Viet Nam (specializing in providing all data about the Vietnamese lottery) and writes articles about the special historical significance of the Vietnamese lottery, so I think it is a reliable reference source with this topic. Can you tell me where further improvement is needed for the article to be approved. 628: 607: 1206:, the key is "a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy". It has little to do with the content of the source, and everything to do with how and by whom the source is written. Random blogs and content farms, where we have no idea who even created the content, much less what their editorial process is, come nowhere close to meeting these requirements. Assuming good faith from editors who start right out of the gate with blatant spam is an utter waste of time. They never turn into good-faith editors. 638: 417: 470: 343: 561: 536: 912: 721: 256: 287: 21: 1078: 901: 1099:

The rest of the site claims to be able to predict winning numbers, which are apparently related to zodiac signs. It is fairly obviously self published and has no fact checking. Clearly not a reliable source. -

Just a quick read of the content itself, which is a neutrally written short history. I assume good faith (you know, that core policy) that it was chosen as a source because it is a succinct secondary source.
