When quoting information from any third-party source, it's best to keep one's critical faculties intact and exercise a bit of common sense.

Every normally reliable sources such as Avherald don't always get it right - for example their report on the Go2Sky B738 at Kristiansand cites a mythical RTO, based on dodgy "data" showing that the aircraft was in the fjord(!) when it started its takeoff run (as pointed out by a fellow PPRuNer at the time).
