Dumb Shit on Wikipedia

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.

The bottom one is a common scheme used by JarlaxleArtemis, who was banned from Wikipedia back in 2005 and would on and off vandalize the site for well over a decade. That's his second identity "Grawp" who was so prolific that pretty much all of Wikipedia's automated anti-vandalism filters and bots are built around him. Apparently Wikipedia tried to get him booted from his ISP.

That guy eventually got arrested two years ago for, in an act completely unrelated to Wikipedia, threatening to bomb the Merriam-Webster dictionary offices lol

Has anybody noticed Wikipedia's awful new user interface? How do I change it back?

If you mean having the mobile version while on desktop, just get rid of the “m” in the url and it’ll go back to the actual desktop one.

In a comment on Oct. 2, 2021, Hanson, under the username @anonYmous, wrote: "It is absolutely sickening that Merriam-Webster now tells blatant lies and promotes anti-science propaganda. There is no such thing as 'gender identity.' The imbecile who wrote this entry should be hunted down and shot."

Is there something like this for YouTube and other websites?

There are, but I haven't tried any of them myself save for BlockTube, which I'd recommend in the strongest possible terms.
I'll give you a little demonstration from a fresh install.

This is Mr. Beast. I do not like Mr. Beast.

In an ideal world, I would like to see him screaming in agony, ribcage splayed open, crucified on a burning upside-down cross in my backyard.

This is not an ideal world though, so never having his videos shilled to me again will have to suffice.

All I have to do to make my dreams a reality is to hit the three dots on the right, hit "Block Channel"...

...and voila.


Never again will his airbrushed faggot face disgrace my sidebar.

looking into this Wikipedia thing because Wikipedia's UI department had mercy on us. I guess all it does is just add something to the URL, changing the theme back, kind of like old.reddit.com but YouTube is a torturous, evil company, so they do not provide that option.

Wikipedia isn't really my bag so I thought I would link this here. I noticed an editor is trying to 86 the Aimee Challenor article. Challenor is a really fucked up troon, babyfur, pedo, etc.. who was involved with the Greens and Labour Party.

The 'editor' (I hesitate to even call them that) literally has no other contributions other than this deletion nomination. Possible Challenor sock?
