Dumb Shit on Wikipedia

There's something weird happening on the George Floyd wikipedia page. Which for some reason archive.md won't let me archive. It just brings me to the main death of George Floyd page.

No mention of the Porn career, or putting a gun to a pregnant woman's belly. They mention his success with attractive women though!


The Talk page has people pushing for it to be deleted, I wonder if that's why. It's still up as of now though. However the link to it from the main 'death of george Floyd' article has gone.

I've downloaded the page files, but I can't find anyway to archive it.

Edit: archive.st has (eventually) let me archive it.

Knowledge of George's ability to impregnate attractive women will live on.

The reason why archive.is or any of its similar sites isn't letting you archive it is because that website is being as slow as a turtle these days, there's a huge delay/queue to archive anything to the point I was wondering if it was being DoS'd.
Also, I don't know why but "archive . is" filters to "archive.is"
Why is this a thing Jewsh @Null ?

That second sentence is so weird, it's like "the most respectful way to interact with trans people is to ask how they identify, but they still can be offended just because you assumed they are trans".

Anyway, today's Did You Know section sports a big swastika as a symbol of Jainism (archive).

And as you could guess, there's already a small fight about it (archive).

Also, swastikas had already been used in various Asian traditions for millennia by the time they were adopted by the Nazis.

I'd say use the symbol the Jains themselves use. They don't have a huge Internet presence and the first website run by actual Jains is pages down in search results, with wikipedia and goofy religion catalog sites way above it. The largest and most functional looks like jainworld. And they use the hand with the swastika symbol on that site. It also represents a central concept in the religion, so if omitting it is something to be done, it should be done only because the adherents of the religion decide to do that.

The Stug III in Bovington Tank Museum in the UK has a Finnish Swastika on it, as it was the Finns who loaned it to them and they (Finland) insisted on keeping it in authentic Finnish markings. Which caused issues for a while. Also apparently it's the reasons the Finns refused to loan a Stug III to Germany because they would have insisted on removing the swastika.

A bunch of retarded autistic idiots are taking the CHAZ larp in Seattle seriously like it's a real thing. The article is shit-tier but the discussion is hilarious.

One of the funnier things is a couple speds arguing about whether its "official" currency should be Bitcoin even though nothing about the whole thing indicates they're even asking for Bitcoin much less using it as a currency.

It's already the subject of a deletion discussion.

Wikipedia:Proposed deletion - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org

Deletionists as well as the very concept of encyclopedic notability are pretty much a dead letter on Wikipedia these days so it won't happen and as you can see, the vast majority of these utter mongoloids are vehemently opposed to deleting this nonsensical article or merging it into general coverage of dumb shit done during these riots.

Do you think they'll delete it when the movement collapses, or will it be left up as a propaganda piece?
