Add Reuters and AP search as link codes to the Find sources module. There is some discussion on this change at [[Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#Replace nyt with reuters]]; while the proposal to ''replace'' NYT with Reuters is clearly controversial, there seems to be less controversy with adding it (and/or the Associated Press) as an option, and in either case having them available as a link codes would be a prerequisite.
I believe adding the following to the code in [[Module:Find sources/links]] should work (though I'd appreciate a double check; also as far as I know news wires are not italicized as titles the way newspapers are, but again, a double check on language and formatting would be appreciated):
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
["ap"] = {
url = 'https://apnews.com/search?q=$1',
display = "Associated Press",
description = "The [[Associated Press]], an American news agency",
},
</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
["reuters"] = {
url = 'https://www.reuters.com/site-search/?query=$1',
display = "Reuters",
description = "[[Reuters]], an international news agency",
},
</syntaxhighlight>
In addition, the link codes table in [[Module:Find sources/doc]] needs to be updated if this change is made, though the documentation does not appear to be template protected so I am happy to make said change myself. Thanks!
