Dumb Shit on Wikipedia

Did we ever conclusively prove this? I thought this too, but now I'm not so sure.

Look at her video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGsllEF7w_g. She has no hips, wide shoulders, thick wrists, and a deepish voice for a woman. Plus she certainly behaves like a troon.

Wow, she looks horrifying in that video. The pictures made her look normal.

I looked through the main Molly thread and someone found an article of her willing a spelling be at 12. So in the right clothes she'd just be some girl you see in a lesbian bike rally.

Yeah, WhiteNight links to it above. That's pretty conclusive.

Imagine being a woman that's so ugly that people on an EBUL NEO-NAZI ALT RIGHT forum have to dox you to prove you're a genuine woman.

This is... actually evil. In a very disturbing way.

They didn't just kill those little octopii. This entire thing is a type of far end logical result of the bigotry of low expectation and the consequences of coddling children and not allowing them to grow.

They (wikimedia) were so desperate to look good they just went with something to look as DIVERSE and INCLUSIVE as possible. They signed off some women who clearly had no skill or basic training to do this and they gave them the creatures to be killed by neglect. But it gets even worse when you realize how they have to have arrived at the decision to give the funding to these sheboons instead of other candidates and realize they were probably so worried about optics and talking with other progressive leftists they never even considered actually thinking about what they were doing.

It would have been fucking trivial to institute a basic level of skill requirement and to ask for some sort of checks and balances. It would have been a no-brainer to try and just look for actual projects that wanted funding and just try and ctrl+f to see which ones were being run or had black women. Fucked up to put a racial requirement sure but at least would have fit.

Instead they cared so little about any actual science or ethics they got two borderline retarded women who happened to have the required racial background and gleefully donated 12 exotic animals to suffer and die of neglect.

I am actually Mad At The Internet now. It is the perfect encapsulation of the end result of this sort of intersectional bullshit. Complete pretend science so progressive intelectuals can circle jerk about how diverse they are, while incompetent diversity quota candidates with no skill waste money and resources that could have gone to actual uses.

I wonder when the first time will be that we have a bridge collapse or some mass death event for putting some diversity retard in charge of an actually critical piece of infrastructure. Assuming it hasn't already happened and been buried by the fake news.

When a pedestrian bridge in Miami collapsed in 2018, there was evidence that affirmative action hiring played a role. Here's an article from (of course) a non-mainstream site.

Here's the full report: https://www.enr.com/articles/48118-final-collapse-report-details-miami-bridge-teams-failures

But yes if this happens the mainstream media will never say so. Or they'll try to blame it on white people, such as the shooting of Philando Castile, where all coverage was about how he was black, and they clearly wanted you to think the cop who shot him was white instead of a Hispanic diversity hire.

If you'll permit me to go a little off topic, this reminded me of another case of a black woman "scientist" who was seriously incapable of acting like an adult, namely the mathematician Piper Harron. Her PhD thesis was written in Buzzfeed-Tumblrese, and when written normally it was 12 pages including the bibliography.

Spoiler: Some quotations

What does that give us? Well, first, I thought I was supposed to read Terr’s thesis [Ter97] and magically generalize it to n = 4 (the case I worked on). This was folly. Then, I thought I was supposed to rewrite [Bha05] adding “and shape in W” everywhere. This is what I did and I alternated between feeling the task was impossibly hard and trivially, plagiarizingly easy (common feelings for grad students). And then one day (and we won’t say which day), my advisor tells me I should just “use” what is known and “make an argument” to prove my result. MIND = BLOWN.

Whatever any of that means! [Editor’s note: The author throws in many phrases that seem to indicate uncertainty; please know that this does not represent mathematical uncertainty, but is meant to relay the following to student readers: 1) you are not expected to understand every word as you read it, 2) you can successfully use math before you’ve successfully understood it, and 3) it has to be okay to be honest about your understanding. The author refused to sacrifice these messages or what she called her “integrity” for the sake of what we saw as very important mathematical credibility.]

Here’s what my husband doesn’t like about this chapter. It’s long. Long, long, long, long.

If you’re still here, you’re making a fairly large life mistake, though you’re better off than I am. The situation for n = 5 is a fricking mess. If I make it through here without my head exploding, please send me your congratulations – if your head has also not exploded, that is. Seriously, the appropriate response is “Oh my goodness what is any of this??”

First thing to learn is the “Pfaffian.” I don’t know what kind of life you have to lead to have heard of a Pfaffian, but I had to look it up on Wikipedia.

In particular, taking the Pfaffian of our Ai will just give us zero, which is not very useful. We have to get more creative (er, not we, we’re just reading someone else’s work).

It's odd when these people just put admissions of plagiarism and lack of understanding in their own work, but it saves time for us, I suppose.

She wrote a blog post, published by the American Mathematical Society, telling cis white men to resign and that universities should stop hiring cis white men. Her cis white husband (must be a masochist) did quit his university job and now works at some sort of investment bank. At some point she started calling herself Piper H and is now a they/she. Many fundamental mathematical discoveries were made by Jews in eastern Europe during a period of high antisemitism, so needless to say, the excuse that "I can't do mathematics because of oppression" doesn't hold any water.

Strangely, she's oddly timid in person, and seems to model her appearance on Tay Zonday:

Strangely, she doesn't have a Wikipedia page, but her thesis does.

> Science writer Evelyn Lamb, in Scientific American, expresses admiration for Harron for explaining the process behind the mathematics in a way that is accessible to non-mathematicians, especially "because as a woman of color, she could pay a higher price for doing it."

Whereas in the real world, everyone knows that she couldn't possibly have done it if she wasn't a "woman of color".

The dicksucking that this trainwreck thesis got was insane. It's a textbook example of not knowing what your fucking audience is. Can you explain some niche topic in analytic number theory to a layman? Yes, with enough time and handwaving. But why bother? If he's interested at all, he'd probably be more interested in the general field than your niche contribution, and once he knows the general field, there's no point to writing in layman's terms. Felt like I went to bizarro world.

I wonder how easily one could keep the position vacant most of the time while keeping a diversity hire for a few months at a time. Then, once their incompetency inevitably reveals itself, they are fired and the process repeats itself. Surely one could repeat that enough times until they get a non-white that's not a slow-in-the-mind.

The dumbest shit I have ever seen on Wikipedia is no longer SJW shit or even the goobergrape articles, it is whatever the fuck abomination they've turned their user interface into.

WHAT the FUCK is this SHIT???

The consequences of trying to make a useful website with modern web design practices.

Probably not. They switched to "Vector" in 2010, and I was using the old old theme for years after that, before they finally switched it off.

You can still use some of the older themes if you have an account.

Eh, it's pretty simple to switch back to the old one with the "Switch to old look" link on the left. I've been using it for over half a year and I've gotten used to it.

What are you talking about? It's "welcoming"! Wikipedia says so.

The fact such a horrendous new design was allowed at all is a sign of how delusional wikipedia management is. They literally had a vote, the wikipedos voted against it in a shocking display of common sense, and the management ignored it and went ahead.

It's likely they pushed ahead with it anyway as a show of force (StackExchange also do these things). The description of the change as "more welcoming" in the announcement is typical, it's just so people can say "If you don't like it, you're not welcoming," which is a close relative of "If you didn't like my film, you're a racist/sexist."

It is, but you can turn it off easily enough. Preferences > Appearance > Vector legacy (2010)

yeah, but you have to create an account, which sucks ass for most people who don't want to create an account

Chemical articles have weird gems (especially in Talk pages)
I don't know if this is someone's formatting mistake or something like that, it's still funny. Someone cited simply "Methylene chloride" for the alternative name "methylene bichloride".


I found a similar thing with the carbon tetrachloride article. They used the chemical's common name as citation here again.


It's very welcoming of Wikipedia to let chemical compounds tell about themselves in their articles. Truly diverse when you think about it.
