unsung figure skater

The first time I saw Korean-American figure skater Sophia Adams was on Good Morning America. What more can anyone tell me about her, like when and where she was born?2603:7000:8101:58A0:87C:1F97:D3C2:BE7E (talk) 01:51, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There's a lot of info on Google. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots03:29, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
For an earlier question, see Wikipedia:Reference desk/Archives/Entertainment/2020 September 6 § diverse figure skater. If an article is created, I suggest disambiguating it as Sophia Adams (figure skater), because there is also an outstanding article request for an archeologist by that name, co-author of The Social Context of Technology: Non-ferrous Metalworking in Later Prehistoric Britain and Ireland.  --Lambiam 11:06, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Update on fictional news channel question

Back in September of 2010, I watched a video on YouTube. The video was of breaking news regarding Oceanic Airlines Flight 815. The supposed source was American News Channel. When I asked by any chance if that news channel fictional as well, another poster asked me to provide a link to the video. Well, it's been over ten years, and here's the link; [1]. I hope this is helpful.2603:7000:8101:58A0:87C:1F97:D3C2:BE7E (talk) 07:43, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, obviously it's fictional. This is Lost fan fiction. --Viennese Waltz 10:45, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Probably created by the producers of the show. Link: Oceanic Airlines § Lost.  --Lambiam 10:53, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No. If it was created by the producers, it wouldn't be fan fiction. I repeat, this was made by a fan of the show. --Viennese Waltz 11:56, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Answering the question: American News Channel is not a real news company. 97.82.165.112 (talk) 14:06, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, as I had already stated in my response to the OP. --Viennese Waltz 14:12, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
