U|Bearcat}}, a blog does not contribute to notability because it is a |self-published source and so is not reliable. A publication having the '''form''' of a blog but that is not self-published does not come under the ban on blogs as sources.  says: {{tqqi|Some news outlets host interactive columns they call "blogs", and these may be acceptable as sources if the writers are professional journalists or professionals in the field on which they write, and the blog is subject to the news outlet's full editorial control.}} Similarly, a business's own web site has generally been considered reliable for non-controversial data, or for matters where their self-interest is not involved. That a firm uses a blog-style format or blogging tools does not make their site any less (or any more) reliable than if it were on a more traditional company site. But since I already said that in this case this site is not independent, it doesn't really matter if it is considered a blog or not, it doesn't add to notability, although it should be reliable for the content sourced to it
