Thanks to César de Paço, there is a realistic shot on taking down Wikipedia for good.

Re: César de Paço
Good find, although you should also drop in how WP itself sees this....

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Cristiano_Tom%C3%A1s
Also a major editor and the talkpage's prinicipal "camper":

Is the WMF going to use this for fundraising and stirring up their pathetic "troops"? OF COURSE.

Otherwise most it of looks like paid editing. Very little on the talkpage other than spluttering. The largest author:In January 2021, his lawyer edited his Wikipedia page and threatened legal action if Wikipedia did not remove information he considered fraudulent; this included the sensationalistic portrayal of his one-time donation to CHEGA!.[10][11]

Re: César de Paço
Ceasr de Paco is all part of the "piranha attack" now underway against Wikipedia
As Wikipedia loses relevance to AI expect more piranha's to attack;

Nothing is more biased than Wikipedia

Re: César de Paço
Lol, it sounds like you're looking forward to this. Everything bad about Wikipedia will be even worse with AI. It inherits reader habits as well as content and style, but adds on greater ease of use (a bad thing) and strips away any good practices Wikipedians pushed themselves to keep, notably proper attribution of sources. And make no mistake, popular informational LLM services will end up being much better propaganda tools than Wikipedia ever was.
Editing Wikipedia is not a substitute for being a person.

The main function of Wikipedia is to provide revenue to Google.
"Best practices" is a lie that some Wikipedian's believe in - creating an "encyclopedia" based on nonsensical "best practices" is another lie.
AI as an information source for consumers will be equally or more deleterious - yep. AI (which will be a broad set of technologies) will make smarter people more effective and the masses even dumber and more feckless - yep.

Apart from Andy Mabbett, no help from me.
"One More Scientist" is unquestionably a sockpuppet of someone.
Still no idea of "Fences and Windows" real identity. British nut-case. Favorite article: wound licking. Knock yourself out.

Re: César de Paço
They're mostly from Portuguese Wikipedia because no one else cares about this stuff. Who is Andre Ventura? Some Portuguese Trump apparently – ask One More Scientist I guess since that's where he started. So we get the same kind of crap as with "Small Hands" Gamaliel, just shameless partisanship except this time with a mostly random third party proxy target. What is Chega? The guy donated $10k to this Chega and now he is their chief financier or something. It''s nuts.ericbarbour wrote: ↑Wed Aug 02, 2023 7:19 amApart from Andy Mabbett, no help from me.

I got a couple of these lusers they're not that hard to find. Might post some names in a bit.

You can see him talking to and being reviewed by his many Wikipedia clients. I guess one of them doesn't like De Paco.
Who is this "Kacamata" character? Blanks a bunch of stuff and when "Darwin" reverts him he places an "advertisement" template for revenge.
