Posted this on the dumb shit on Wikipedia thread but it’s equally relevant here:

It looks like the article has been heavily edited by some user going by "MirnaSancho," (22 edits to it between Sept 21 and Sept 22, 2021 alone) they added the initial section about it on September 21st, 2021. This is the only page the account has edited.

Then another account, with a single edit, "Yourverysus," moved the information to the top of the article on Dec 23, 2021.

Intredasting.
Mirna didn't just edit the MATI paragraph a lot, he's the one who wrote the 'controversy' section in the first place and he added himself that MATI and KF are 'under the umbrella of the alt-right movement'.
What happened on September 21 or September 20 2021? Someone got very, very angry at this website on that day.
 
does anyone know which stream josh talks about how ralph didn't believe he didn't use discord for some weird reason, then ralph sperged out at him on a call about how jim hates him etc?

It's the last 15 or so min of the 1 October 2021 episode "Dear Josh". At least that's the date/title on the podcast feed.

Honestly, in retrospect I think teachers and professors didn't like Wikipedia when it was new because it didn't have political commissars policing the articles. Once it was pretty clear that Wikipedia was firmly controlled by progressive jannies, I noticed that my professors stopped bitching at people for using Wikipedia as a source.

When I noticed this shift in attitude in my classes, I asked a younger sibling if his high school teachers were still wary about Wikipedia, and he said only the old ones cared about it anymore. Later I learned about the blatant ideological policing on Wikipedia and when that started, and the overlap between these two trends made sense.

Yeah my professors were all anti Wiki when I was in undergrad. I found it useful to at least use the cited sources at the time.
