I didng say that he dosnt have any further info, I said he dosnt provide any.If you are going to Discount every source that is biased in this war then there won't be much for you to read in this thread. What matters is whether or not they are factually correct
If you question his decisions, I suggest you contact him with the specific questions. You are assuming he has no further info beyond the picture, my experience has been that he does. He and whoever is working with him are sorting through huge amounts of information so it wouldn't surprise me that for the sake of getting everything listed he doesn't document everything on his website. I've found him to be responsive to messages and questions like that. I have also seen him recategorize losses and remove some entirely. If you don't have any argument beyond "you're biased", I would be prepared to be either ignored or embarrassed. I've seen him do that too.
And this is combined with demonstrated bias enough to not treat his list as religious as a lot of people do.
You can argue that we can always double check him, but at the same time you admit that it's a huge pile of material so who will do that? The ordinary person cant distinguish between a T-80 and a T-72, especially when it's burned down and blown up.
One woule think people can distinguish a mig29 from a helicopter yet this:
Was on his list as russian helicopter loss for quite some while. Why? Because Twitter claimed it was, because it seemed plausable enough. The fact is he had no clue but decided to just put it up as russian loss.
Yet till this day we miss this mig 29's although there is clear evidence of their destruction:
New Footage Shows One Fifth of Ukraine’s MiG-29 Fleet Destroyed in One Russian Missile Strike
Within 48 hours of the initiation of a Russian military campaign in neighbouring Ukraine, footage emerged of a Ukrainian airfield showing six MiG-29 fighters seriously

How come they are not counted? Even Wikipedia has them included in its list and no one here would think wikipedia is a great source for anything.
