A discussion at Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals) resulted in consensus supporting the proposal to "remove all individual news outlets" from Module:Find sources/templates/Find general sources (closure: Special:Diff/1195065906). This means removal of the following lines:
{ code = 'new york times', display = "''NYT''", tooltip = 'The New York Times', }, { code = 'ap', display = 'AP', tooltip = 'Associated Press', },
