    forgive me for being suspect about a random anti wikipedia website at a time when the right wing is spending billions to discredit and shut down wikipedia.

      The issue that the article raises is legitimate, but actually looking through their archives is baffling, they’re really just hellbent on shitting on WP. One of their most read articles says Wikipedia should attract more female editors by reducing the anonymity on the site and making it more like a social media platform. What the hell? https://wikipediocracy.com/why-women-have-no-time-for-wikipedia/

        Ah yes, I’d love people online to be positive I’m a woman and not just probably one! That would make me feel extremely safe! I am being extremely sarcastic!

      Are you saying the article is false?

      And do you think the right wing doesn’t spend any money to edit Wikipedia?
