Katherine retweeted this tweet, and I concider it also as interesting.
I the first place, Maher/WMF is/are much to much focust on that gender bias, because it is just one of the many, many bias probelms of Wikipedia. And it is clear this lady Jessiwrites has not even a clou how Wikipedia is working. Like so many people and I am afraid Katherine is one of them.
Because, a question
how can we fix Wikipedia? is insane, because fixing Wikipedia is impossible because of the many, many system errors. No one has any grip on the community's, they are a no ones child.
If it was possible to fix Wikipedia for sure someone had done that a long time ago. If it was possible to fix Wikipedia I am sure WMF used all there resources to fix wikipedia.
But, the probelm is at the moment WMF tries to fix Wikipedia it collaps, and it end up in a tremendous legal exposer for them, so that is not going to happen. It should be legal suicide for them, so for sure it is not gonna happen. So the "fixing" of Wikipedia are only words, words, paroles, paroles what we hear, and that is all. There is simple nothing to do for Wikipedia what really helps.
The only way out is the ravine, it is a sad conclusion but the only right conclusion. They are driving in a dead end with a wall at the end with the pedal to the metal, and no one can change that.
