    @roastedDeflator I’ve been puzzled by this site for a while now. I don’t want to discourage contributions here - the more the merrier - but at the same time articles like this do raise questions.

    It was only after I read another article on the same subject that I was able to work out what it is trying to say.

    The language of the url is Indonesian, so English as an additional language may be part of the problem?

      This is something that crossed my mind but it still doesn’t answer the question of who writes these mainstream articles. I also thought it could be something like a personal blog, but the number of daily published articles is too great to support this thought.
      And the OP doesn’t seem to care to engage in replying to my questions so far.

        Yeah I came to the same conclusion that it’s not a blog as well, maybe just a re-write news site run by people without much experience.

        OP is quite likely trying to promote it. Hopefully they come and engage here.

          I think if it was several people at the beginning of their writing career on mainstream topics, they would gladly include their names.

          OP is quite likely trying to promote it. Hopefully they come and engage here.

          I am honestly looking forward to their repply

            Never did get a reply but I’ve worked it out. It’s someone using software to replace specific phrases in existing news articles so that they are no longer an exact match.

            They’re close paraphrases but sometimes the meaning is changed. Reddit used to have bots that did this to avoid detection when reposting comments.

            Had to ban the person anyway for breaking sub rules, but I think we should probably treat “infoterkiniviral” as blog spam.

            Example their rewrite, and original
