Tally of statuses in Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources, derived from the MediaWiki parse API on 10 November 2026
Method: fetched the rendered page through the MediaWiki parse API and counted table rows by the alt text of the status icon in each row. Of 472 rows with a status icon, 156 were generally reliable, 112 no consensus, 148 generally unreliable and 56 deprecated; a further 25 rows carry a Blacklisted icon, so 472 status rows plus 25 blacklisted rows equal 497. The deprecated rows include state-run outlets (for example RT, Sputnik and Global Times), sources described as left, right and non-partisan (for example the Daily Caller and Occupy Democrats), and non-news sites (for example genealogy, music and travel sites). Counts change with every edit.
