Basic, obvious, dumb errors by that donkey of an editor, Jess Wade

Does what it says on the tin.
Wade has far more issues with her editing than just making dumb shit mistakes, but it's the frequency and sheer stupidity of these mistakes, that provides a great window into what she is, as a Wikipedia editor, and a person.
Sloppy.
A better editor, no, a better person, just doesn't make these sort of mistakes in the pursuit of a noble goal, because they would already know that it's better to do a job well, and take the time needed to do it properly, than try and rush a job, just to keep to your self set target of posting one woman biography a day.
Because who ultimately suffers when people read a person's biography written by a supposedly experienced editor like Wade, with all her media profile and accolades, and it's as shit as these sort of makes suggest? Everyone involved in Wikipedia. The whole community. Of which the largely mute, isolated loner Wade, isn't really even a part of in any meaningful way.
I doubt if she even notices that these sort of dumb errors she makes, sometimes get fixed. And sometimes don't.
This will be a non-exhausitve list, because who the hell has the time to forensically check an article of the size of an average Wade biography, once a day, every day? Even for obvious errors like these.
It shall serve as just an example that she's always got these kind of clangers in her, even after all these years, and nobody on Wikipedia is either trying or even seems to know how to stop her from making them.
The fact she screams SEXIST and demands protection from HARASSMENT everytime someone dares point out she's an absolute fucking donkey of an editor, with proof, might have something to do with it. As might the fact she is protected at the very highest levels. And certainly nobody at Wikipediocracy wants to find the balls to criticise a woman, certainly not a woman who falsely portrays herself as a feminist.
Feminism isn't about giving free passes to rubbish women, it's about recognising woman as equals. If you don't think a man would be warned and blocked on Wikipedia for making the sort of dumb shit mistakes Wade does, at the frequency and with the alleged experience she has, think again. Try it.
The beauty of Wikipedia, is that you can always do you own experiment. Sign up with a male sounding name, make ths same sort of dumb shit mistakes Wade does, and keep making them, and see how long you last. Making sure that people are aware of your work, of course, because Wikipedia isn't exactly known for its ability to spot crap editors in general. Can't get the staff, apparently.
But plenty of people are aware of Wade, and so they must occasionally realise how shit she is. But for their own reasons, some laudable, some quite pathetic, they choose to look the other way, or worse, silently trail in her wake, fixing this crap for her.
How much do you have to hate yourself, I wonder, to think that is what Wikipedia is all about? Wade certainly thinks that is how collaboration is supposed to work on Wikipedia. She's warped like that.
