They just reverted again what appears to be a Canadian government or Canadian corporate office IP trying to add it back in

Re: Experiences with RationalWiki and MetaPedia?
They are not "leftist", they are "trollist". RW exists to shit on everyone in the political world ... I would say yes, at points certain politically capable users have attempted to go beyond the TrollWiki brand, quickly to be worn down and discarded. At the heart of the project has always been this...

Should Wikipedians with severe autism be barred from admin positions?
So many Wikipedia administrators appear to have severe autism. It's not *always* a bad thing. I know one administrator with autism that is *ok*.

Re: Crap or questionable articles
[[Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.]] Wikipedia found it encyclopedic to completely reframe Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s 50 year career and celebrity in the lede based off tweets about... 3 years of a pandemic. The entire first sentence was made to fit the last 3 years, and half the lede is now about the last 3 yea...

Re: Experiences with RationalWiki and MetaPedia?
Another thing for people who claim RationalWiki is "leftist" Their Joe Biden article is dozens of pages of his supposed "accomplishments", only criticizing him for not enough lockdowns Pick at random someone even nominally to the left of Joe, say Stein https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Jill_Stein, and i...

Re: Experiences with RationalWiki and MetaPedia?
This is a technocratic, American liberal politics wiki with hundreds of pages on dense American political subjects written a decade ago. No it's not. It's a trolling and bullying wiki. Read this, and tell me what it has to do with "liberal politics". https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/William_Nelson The...

Re: Experiences with RationalWiki and MetaPedia?
Went into the RationalWiki group chat and tried poking their knowledge of various things. Virtually none of them had any idea who Milton Friedman was, for example.
