The internal selection section is very poorly sourced. The reference to the "gazeta.ru" site gives a 404 page and the Wiwibloggs source simply states Zivert "was reported to have finished second", which I don't think is good enough to just state it as being true on Wikipedia. Another source is a one hour long video in Russian with no timestamp given, so I can't verify that. Is there any reliable source that actually confirms the shortlisted acts? ―Jochem van Hees (talk) 14:59, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
