I see Kraken has excoriated us on Sucks for not being critics. I'm perfectly willing to rail some more about the bias against articles on businesses (which I regard as one of Wikipedia's biggest problems; that's me though, I want stuff covered in the encyclopaedia), but I think that point's been adequately made, and that Serial, who AFAIK isn't a member, has just done us a solid. The history shows the article being created as a stublet in 2014 (way late) and expanded by an IP in 2021 after they acquired Seneca and with it a lot of Oregon acreage (AP). Unfortunately the IP was only interested in the statistics (1st edit, 2nd edit), so "Seneca" still isn't in the article. Most of the edits are shit like tagging, adding cats in response to a tag, wiki-linking "California" ... But other than that I can't find a way to use the actual editing of this article as a heinous example. Sorry, Kraken. I'm not much of a critic.

But at least you're trying, which is more than can be said for the others.

If you want to learn how to properly critique a single article to reveal the fundamental flaws of Wikipedia, you need look no further than me as your mentor.....

George W. Perkins is getting fucked in the ass by both Wikipedia and the alleged Wikipedia critics you're now finding common cause with after all your years of just being a creepy lurker. Maybe if you all stopped playing at being critics and fucked off back to Wikipedia to DO SOME GODDAMNED MAINTENANCE OF YOUR EXISTING PILE OF RUSTED AUTO PARTS (if only so that the presence of expansion worthy two line stubs like Sierra Pacific might be more obvious), maybe I wouldn't find it so easy to make Vigilant cry by my mere presence.

Speaking of Vigilant, why is he absent from that Sierra Pacific editathon? Are you excluding Vigilant? Making him feel unwelcome due to his patent lack of ability? Not cool people. Not cool. Definitely an -ism or an -obia. Ask that dumb (but fiery!) bint Elinruby for the precise terminology. It sounds like she thinks she's an expert. It's got to be some new fangled thing. It can't be something as simple as you all secretly hate the guy and can't fathom why he is their "#1" poster when he does so little. Can it?

The last person to edit it was none other than Steven Pruitt (T-H-L). Proof, if it were needed, that the media doesn't know shit about Wikipedia.
The guy has never even been vandalized. It's had two edits from unregistered users, both helpful. Rather amusingly, the super banned Neelix (T-C-L) edited it once. Jokestress had made a good faith error, and Neelix politely corrected it.

Easily explained. If he is not a "really notable person" he is ignored. WP has tens of thousands of stubs like this at all times. Pure accident that someone saw the IMDB record of Perkins and decided to drop in an article on WP. Leaving someone else to "SOFIXIT".

And the Adderall-gobblers who commonly expanded items like this are quitting or being forced out. The cranks who are sharpening their knives on WP don't give enough of a damn--unless it connects to their obsessions/paying customers. If Perkins had something to do with the Salvation Army, certain paid edit jobs, or sex slavery, Neelix would have spent FAR more time on this article. But no.

You remember what happened to Neelix, right?
