Re: Larry Sanger harshly criticizes Wikipedia
Ask me about Neutrality sometime. Consider yourself asked. It's strange how Larry avoids talking both about Neutrality & about Minassian. I guess that sort of in-the-weeds stuff isn't going to get you as much Twitter-love as some of the other craziness he gets involved in. As for Snoog being Cirt, ...

Re: Wikipedia has a black people problem
France would not have sold the US everything West of the Mississippi had it not been for Haiti. This is cross-posted but you get the final draft, Crow, Eric. :geek: At the moment, on Jovenel Moïse 's BLP, the acting president of Haïti is said to be one of the masterminds of his predecessor's killing...

Re: Is wikipedia really the cesspool everyone weighs it to be here?
To them, it is an "encyclopedia", as if that word had never even had a different meaning, a past usage where it was taken as read that you could trust the content of an encyclopedia was accurate, unbiased, and complete. Scholars have claimed that Rabelais is the first written record of this word. I...

Re: Ming the Mong strikes again, US politics edition
I doubt you read the original thread Ming is referring to, Eric. Pretty much everything from "I predicted..." on, in JisaS's testimony is very likely pure HTD (hallelujah to dat) goodness.
I popped over here to ask someone else a question and ended up grinning.

Major Pants & JzG
The culture of Wikipedia is fundamentally broken. It's bullies like Chapman who drive away people that actually want to build a encyclopedia. It gets so tedious dealing with loudmouths like him because you have to struggle over every word. Heh. Just for the record in response to pseudo-Jake above (...

Re: Freenode, the WMF's favorite IRC system, is sold off
I thought I would ask why IRC was so important in the building of a knowledge source. Perhaps in time some brave soul will answer the question.

Re: How Doniago got a perfectly productive editor expelled, for no good reason at all.
In fairness, wbm did -- indirectly mind you -- call into question the utility of the "we are the police" block, but as I recall it was Black Kite who told him it was neither here nor there whether the block was in fact worth making. Why can't Template:Infobox film be coded to ignore (and not display...

Re: Brooklyn Center MN and Daunte Wright
Over and over people try to make it look like a violent police state I see all reference to the former city manager disappeared without a trace. You have to admit the story about the FBI paying rent to a Vegas developer for their digs in Brooklyn Center is odd... but is it "catalytic"? ( § ) I supp...
