Dumb Shit on Wikipedia

Is he the only non-retarded wikipedo?
He sounds pretty based to me.
I got bad news:
He has helped lessen systemic bias on Wikipedia and promote female inclusion, via the Women in Red project
Wikipedia edits have included creating articles on more than 600 women, in order to counter the site's gender gap.
He described his commitment to help boost Wikipedia's coverage of notable women, one area in which Wikipedia critics have noted the site falls short
 

Still sounds pretty good to me. Wikipedia is full of biased bullshit and always has been. They're now canceling some guy who has actually tried to fix that? That's why people hate SJWs.

I agree on the general principle that we need to move past the 11th edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica version of most facts that dominate most of their historical articles.

I just find it hilarious they're literally hunting down and destroying one of the guys who was doing this, for literally no reason at all.

This kind of shit is why I will never donate to wikipedia ever again. Anything short of absolutely defending their good faith editors is not worthy of support. Burn and die, Wikipedos.
 

Story I caught in The Intercept about the politically motivated edit wars over likely-Democrat vice presidential appointee Kamala Harris. Some hack began scrubbing any negative content from her article with hundreds of alterations for "minor edits for length", constructing a massive fluff piece in the process with some edits apparently aping her campaign press releases word for word.
follow up on that article. the primary fanboy was easily identified as Bnguyen1114. he wrote the majority of her article.

the ass mad editor Rhododendrites is one of the users you see show up at these contentious issues. he was on the yaniv defense squad when that was erased from the site.

so outcome is better than I would have expected, but all these articles are going to be press releases eventually. props to the intercept for catching it and stirring the pot.

Let's defend Wikipedos to own the immagrunts awesome style.
 
I was looking up some info about Christopher Walken on Wikipedia, and found this:

Now, that’s already autistic, but if you follow More Cowbell, you get:
Which not only explains and synopsizes the entire sketch but explains the differences between the sketch and reality, as well as its influences on culture.
 
You think Wikipedia favors China’s own Wikipedia page than they do to the U.S.’s?
I’m not saying they’re hiring Chinese editors from their country, but I wouldn’t be surprised if I heard that they’re now looking for more insight from an international perspective, and it just so happens that they chose the nation that we are still handling with kid gloves, but blame Russia as the scapegoat for some reason.

  • Donald J. Trump (1946): New York City-based real estate developer, defrauded[53]7000 enrollees from 2005-2010 through now-defunct Trump University (sometimes also known as the Trump Wealth Institute and Trump Entrepreneur Initiative LLC) which was never an accredited institution of higher education, neither conferred college credit, nor granted degrees, nor graded its students, used high-pressure tactics[54] and misleading claims to sell three-to-five-day seminars billed as "retreats" to courses in real estate, asset management, entrepreneurship, and wealth creation. Settled three Federal class action lawsuits[55][56][57] for US$25 million in November 2017 after being elected President of the United States.[58] He has also defrauded many small-business owners through not paying contracts and telling them through non-legal means they violated their contracts, so as to avoid liability for the statements while keeping the claimants from challenging him due to the prospects of high legal expenses.[59][60] He also lied about his net worth in claiming to own parts of his father's real estate empire which he didn't at the time, in order to get onto the Forbes 400.[61]

:story:

I love how they don't even try to be neutral or truthful anymore. People have been trying to remove this obvious attack entry for months but it's re-added every time because it "has sources", even though the sources state Trump has not been convicted of anything.
 
A fun space to watch on Wikipedia is their "In the News" crap. It has a notable anti-US bias and some of the most abrasive personalities on Wikipedia. Take the bad weather centered around Iowa that affected at least half a million people, killed at least two, and destroyed a large amount of cropland (about a third!): two for inclusion and six against under the idea that it's "parochial."

No you think? Hell, I remember when "China" was a disambiguation page, and although to be fair, when talking about "China" in modern context is likely about the mainland and communist government, the decision to make it that page was probably supported by "one China" editors.

Even South Korea has professional netizens who shit on Japan-related articles, which is why you get English-language stubs on politicians with around four-fifths of the article saying he/she is a far-right nationalist and historical revisionist for supporting Allied accounts of what happened during WWII instead of the TRUE and HONEST Korean narrative.
 
I found there page for christian film industry, when it comes to mainstream christian movies a little weird. They say films such as Ben-Hur, The Ten Commandments, The Robe and The Passion of Christ are not considered part of the christian film industry. "And said their more agnostic about their audience religious beliefs." Like what? Those movies are based directly from the Bible. How are they agnostic to their audience?
Yeah sure, they are made my mainstream Hollywood. But the first three are movies were made in a time, where those movies weren't out of the ordinary.

The passion of Christ may be made by a mainstream stuido company. But Mel Gibson and Jim Caviezel are both christian conservatives. You would think Wikipedia would consider it being part of the christian film industry because of that.

Just found it weird
