It's a source used on the page already:

That is a WP:PRIMARY source, you want to use a WP:SECONDARY source instead. I think another issue is also that you are not using the correct wikitext markup, for example {{Cite web}}, to reference the sources. This is important to make the articles readable and for the references to be listed correctly. A good place to start is looking for news articles from WP:RSP sources that you can then use to cite, or post them here and we can help you with the wikitext and learning how to reference a source.

Is Reuters a good source?

Yes, Reuters is a good source! Hang on, I'll write up a {{Cite web}} for you. Gurkubondinn (talk) 10:48, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You can use this to add a reference to the Reuters article:
<ref name="reuters-2025-01-07">{{Cite web |title=Tire maker Goodyear to sell Dunlop brand to Japan's Sumitomo Rubber for $701 mln |url=https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/tire-maker-goodyear-sell-dunlop-brand-sumitomo-rubber-701-mln-2025-01-08/ |first=Gursimran |last=Kaur |date=8 January 2025 |work=[[Reuters]] |access-date=1 October 2025}}</ref>
To know if Reuters is a good source, you can read entry for Reuters in the WP:RSP list. Gurkubondinn (talk) 11:00, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
