Re: Other Bad Wikipedia Admins
one could write a whole book about Bishonen's stupidity. Unfortunately she and Giano are joined at the hip, and since Giano has been scarce since 2022, that fun little coupling might be over. See Giano's block log for more "fun". :jerkoff: PS: it was a LOT longer. He changed his username several ti...

Re: Other Bad Wikipedia Admins
When I think of bad admins, two names that come to mind are Doug Weller and Bishonen. Both of them think a lot more of themselves than they should, and both of them clearly get an adrenaline rush from the "power" of being an admin - a power that they have a tendency to use erratically and in a petty...

A farewell to Andrevan
I missed this one during my absence. Down goes Andrevan! He was one of the 5-10 people who interacted with me the most on Wikipedia these past few years. I, for one, am glad to see him gone. He was a real blight on Wikipedia, especially in the area of modern politics. He acted like he knew everythin...

Re: Research Article: Wikipedia’s Intentional Distortion of the History of the Holocaust
I really don't think that anti-Semitic bias is one of the big neutrality problems on Wikipedia - far from it. There are plenty of counterexamples. Pro-USGOV, pro-CIA bias is orders of magnitude more prominent than anti-Jew bias. But if that's the issue that's able to push Wikipedia criticism into th...

Re: Instances of pro-Russian bias in Wikipedia?
Everyody working for George Soros or the Clinton-Giustra Enterprise Partnership was working for Igor Ivanov and the South African ANC which is a Russian front. These same people are the NAFO trolls. They were recruited because they bought into Russian propaganda so deeply that they will ban you and...

Re: Instances of pro-Russian bias in Wikipedia?
So ru.wiki is full of uncritical pro-Western propaganda, too? Hmm.
I don't think that a government-run Wikipedia mirror is a good solution to the problem.
It's probably as lame as Conservapedia.

Re: Koavf reverts Doug Weller's revert to Antifa, Bishonen blocks Koavf, and many accusations of trolling and "admin abu
The fact that emotionally immature, cognitively below-average, petty, karen-esque people like Bishonen and Doug Weller are influential on Wikipedia pretty much sums up the root of Wikipedia's problems. That is why, despite my conviction that it's truly important for the world that Wikipedia be overh...

Re: Instances of pro-Russian bias in Wikipedia?
I'm not aware of any instances of pro-Russian bias on en.wiki, off the top of my head. I am aware of plenty of anti-Russian bias. Overall, the political bias on Wikipedia can be summarized as "Western chauvinism". Just compare the article on Navalny to the article about Aleksandr Dugin. I read the l...

This is almost certainly the same troll that's behind a lot of this. It's not ScottishFinnishRadish.

Re: "Toxic facts about Shell removed from Wikipedia: How Shell became the most hated brand in the world"
This is very interesting. I've got some Amazon gift card money right now. I think I'm going to buy this book.
