Taylor appears to be upset about her Wikipedia page. Apparently journalists that interview her use wikipedia as a source and ask her questions that are based on "crazy right wing conspiracies"
She also appears to still be upset with her MSNBC interview from 2022?

To her credit, the stranglehold that the clique of lazy, ideologically-driven, conceited jannies have on Wikipedia is a massive problem, considering it's most people's go-to for surface-level information for any topic on the entire Internet. For example, Libs of TikTok's locked Wikipedia article heavily insinuates that the owner is a White nationalist, Kremlin-backed terrorist mastermind, when in reality she's just a dumb Jewish woman who runs a Twitter account that makes people angry.

i remember in school always being told that wikipedia is not a credible source of information because anybody can just write anything and that if i were to ever cite wikipedia on an essay especially in college i would get laughed at. so its interesting to see how those beliefs seem to have died out and now wikipedia is seen as absolute fact. that being said welcome to the club taylor sure does suck to have a bunch of insane weirdos write lies about you online and all of a sudden actual journalists are taking those lies as absolute facts. could not have happened to a better person :)

Trusted Source (most likely something like Kotaku or Polygon) reports "Epik says Kiwifarms host CP!"
Null wins a lawsuit that amongst other things requires them not only to take down the original claim but post a clarification that that was a lying lie (that lied)
If no trusted sources correct the record Wikipedia does not need to be edited, even if the quote from the company itself that was the source for the original article has been confirmed as an outright lie by that same company.

That's the benefit of a victorious lawsuit. The trusted sources would have to correct the record.

Media outlets don't issue corrections for fun or because, as journalists, they have an idealistic respect for the inherent value of the truth. Journalists like that are a dying breed.

Rather than that, they issue corrections because legal forces them to.

And a successful lawsuit under our belt would demonstrate to any reasonably responsible corporate counsel that a defamation lawsuit from the farms actually has teeth.

Wikipedia is like someone saw heard about the "appeal to authority" fallacy and decided to build an entire website around that. Unfortunately, I predict Wikipedia will bend over and kiss Taylor Lorenz's ass. They'll turn her article into a glowing puff piece and quietly let the situation die out. I don't think this will have a positive impact on the way the site operates at all, because they've had plenty of opportunities to fix their shit, but never have.

Molly has a thread here and it's one I can barely read because the Wikipedia jannies are the most smug faggots to ever walk this earth.

Wikipedia really lost me with the whole Haruhi Problem debacle. Basically a /sci/ thread actually proved a new result in mathematics, and wikipedia refused to cite the actual thread, saying that it wasn't trustworthy. The article they chose to cite directly used the thread as its own source.

For me, it was when they declared that the evidence of Byuu not being dead was invalid because "consensus" trumps evidence.

The only thing Wikipedia is good for is when you need a QRD on something you're not familiar with; even then, it's not reliable, just cursory and surface-level.

In many threads over the years, multiple Kiwis have made it clear that it is not possible to hate journoscum enough. Bitches like Ms. Lorenz are just one of many reasons why. Her distress over her Wikipedia article is delicious schadenfreude for me.

What's wrong sweetheart? Don't you enjoy the consequences of the attitudes and practices you sought to normalize? Did you truly never think that your hard-hitting exposure of the truth fellation of the Establishment would never motivate someone to use your own methods against you?
