https://wikipediocracy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=14168 Started June 2, long before the "Simple Article Summary" explosion. Merged from two different threads. Note that the infamous ScottishFinnishRadish said: I've actually done a fair amount of experimenting around this using chatgpt 4.5. You ca...

They closed and archived the recall request. Nothing happened. It is quite possible that NO action will be taken. Bbb has not done anything since the 9th. If he logs in and starts reverting/banning, THEN you will know it failed. Do not expect any public announcement. Also don't be surprised if someb...

Other thread where I noted the "Simple Article Summary" explosion, which only received attention when 404media ran an item about it: https://wikipediasucks.co/forum/viewtopic.php?p=31317#p31317 It also mentions "Tone Check", which is receiving similar ragey treatment from the Wiki-Inmates. Is the WM...

just look at Gary "Gerhard" Lauck's NSDAP/AO website.

It's down today. Wonder how many DDOS attacks it gets.

I tried to write a list of the ones who are gone and who are still there, but this fucking forum logged me out. Short version: About half the WMF employees are still working for the WMF. Sydney Poore was desysopped. Dan "Deskana" Garry quit his WMF job and was desysopped for inactivity. You won't be...

Still think you could, and should, write a book about "fringe" wikis like Metapedia, RW and Conservapedia. They don't seem to have enough money for libel suits. If Isaacson can put out a somewhat-honest book about Musk, you can write about the likes of Lagerström and Trent Toulouse. You already have...

Well....be glad you're not following the Song of Ice and Fire series. First book hit the shelves in 1996. Ol' George Rail Road has STILL not finished book 6, even after twenty-nine years, plus TWO tv series based on the previous books. Or Wheel of Time, where Jordan was working on book 12 and droppe...

Bbb posted a comment at the bottom of the AN squabble (one of the most MORONIC I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot) on June 6. On June 9 he censored his talkpage by removing comments from the people asking for his removal. Since then, no edits or actions. He knows his "mop" is hanging by a very fine...

PS your comment: The number of genuinely prestigious public universities in the United States can be counted on one hand, probably on three fingers, and quite possibly on one. And Trumpie-Poo has been issuing threats against Harvard. Partly because he was refused entry back in the 1960s. THAT is pet...
