There are common sense rules of protocol. It is up to the moderators to act accordingly. This includes the reliability and sincerity of posts. A recurring problem is misinformation posted with suspect motives.
If a prospective buyer of a Z6 or Z7 is seeking reliable sources, it is NOT these Clickbait video channels. These sources are notorious for unreliability and worse. Here are 2 objective sources of reviews of the Z System by actual photographers:
The two websites you reference are two of my favorites. But tif we are being honest they are both heavily Nikon favoring sites.
The principles of the Photography life website have a long history of being Nikon users and advocacy.
Sanmirror is one of Thom Hogan's sites. His tag line is:
"Supporting the Nikon F-mount on the Internet since 1994..."
At the same time, the YouTube channel posted by the OP that you point to as unreliable, and biased, has been a Nikon based photography channel since its inception. Its operator has been a Nikon shooter for decades. Yet after a year long trial of the Nikon Z cameras he has dropped Nikon for still shooting only in favor of another brad. So, now in your view he is biased and unreliable.
Your definition of objective is unique for sure.

It is up to the moderators to cross-reference the OP's DPR record in Nikon Z bashing. Incessant and boring, and so much noise. Above all the motives for posting are questionable, which likely explains why these trouble-making posters end up on Ignore-Lists - for the far more important reason that posted information cannot be trusted. Here is another example of why Ignore-List was needed months back: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/63089145
So, you are stating that the FM moderators should monitor other websites, and punish people here for what they say in other forums that offend you?
I guessing that the FM moderators, and most observers,, find that to be as big stretch in logic as I do.
