Can we agree to something on WSO?

When someone answers a question about a group/firm on hours, culture, etc. and their only source of information is another wallstreetoasis post, can they mention that so it doesn't seem like the info is coming from two sources rather than one?

seems that a lot of the time, someone mentions one thing about a group, and every post after that about that group says the exact same thing (e.g. XX is a sweatshop) and as soon as someone says something different new posts change as well (e.g. nope, XX actually has reasonable hours). seems like the blind leading the blind to me, and merely acknowledging that wso was the source could alleviate that problem

EDIT: As an addendum, can we also agree that if someone is from a non-NY office (london, paris, hong kong) and says something about a firm they should mention their location just because firm reps vary so much from place to place (e.g. UBS, Rothschild) and i think it's a reasonable assumption that we're usually talking about NY if unspecified?

Even better, why the one who asks doesnt uses the search function until he founds said previous post?
