Re: Wikipedia claims 8% of Brazil is gay based on bunk study from 2009

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_LGBTQ%2B_Community_in_Brazil Wow, this is one of worst articles I have seen on Wikipedia. At first, it looks undersourced, but it's actually worse than that.

Re: Anyone remember Greg Wickwire?

i had forgotten about the sleazy wikipedians he was/is allied with. its like a whos who of wikipedias worst people including tamzin (PinkAmpersand) and demiurge1000.

Re: Paid Editing on WP is permissible

probably not paid editing, but certainly COI: Joe Garden, writer for The Onion among others. the article was started in 2008 by Spidermonkey71 who didnt do much else on wikipedia. he regrets painting joe biden as "creepy but harmless" and that The Onion let him off easy.

Re: Why We Hate Wikipedia / Ten things you probably didn't know about Wikipedia

There was a scandal years ago where Jimmy used the Wikipedia debit card on vacation in Moscow, buying expensive liquor, lap dances, and call girls. That was money donated by people to help the site, but Jimbo is a textbook narcissist. Yeah I know. There was a thread somewhere I think. lotsa luck fi...
