Wikipedia is pretty sick, isn’t it?
He has no idea. The sucker.

Also, for the record, Rhys Thomas spends most of his time writing shallow screeds about the "magic" of crypto. Which makes him perfect for this relaunch of The Face, a notoriously vapid UK celeb-tattle and nightclubbing zine that went out of business 20 years ago.

But the people doing so are generally diligent and accurate, updating and creating pages out of the kindness of their hearts. Without them, you’d still be quietly seething after not being able to prove you were right about whatever sparked your last pub debate. Wikipedia, what a wonderful world.
Read the article at the Face; turns out the author is a puke-worthy Wikipedia sycophant.

Everything written these days seeks to generate "the clicks" and to seek favor.
Wikipedia - "Barely competent and paranoid. There’s a hell of a combination."

Oh my god, that is the most unreadable website I have ever seen. And I have seen this.
