Possible additions to article[edit]

What I plan on adding to Censorship on TikTok:

- Under the "Minority Groups" subsection, I plan on adding information to the "Black people" section about a big issue involving the censoring of "pro-black" words and phrases that TikTok content creators encountered.

  - https://www.insider.com/a-timeline-of-allegations-that-tiktok-censored-black-creators-2021-7

  - https://www.insider.com/tiktok-racism-algorithm-apology-creator-marketplace-ziggy-tyler-2021-7

- I also plan on creating an "Asian people" section and discussing a scandal involving one of TikTok's newest features to the application that I remember coming across many times while scrolling through my For You Page.

  - https://mashable.com/article/tiktok-censorship-asian-women

- Editing the lead section so that it adequately fits with the newly added section.

- There are a few grammatical and formatting errors that I plan on fixing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kassandras1029 (talk • contribs) 17:16, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Issue with the lead[edit]

So, the lead of the article starts as:

There is evidence that TikTok has down-weighted the posts of topics deemed sensitive by the Chinese government and Chinese Communist Party.

My issue is that the lead says there is evidence, but does not cite inline any source (let alone evidence), despite that other sentences in the lead are given inline citation. Is there any evidence cited in the article? If so, can we reuse those citations at the lead, and omit “There is evidence that” and “the” at the first sentence, like in the following?

TikTok has down-weighted posts of topics deemed sensitive by the Chinese government and Chinese Communist Party.

Note: I wanted to do the first sentence’s aforementioned altering but I wanted to discuss it before, mainly because the sentence needs inline citations of reliable sources as evidence.
