Wikipedia Sucks: Here are 10 Reasons Why

There are many reasons why Wikipedia represents a flawed model for publishing accurate information. These 10 reasons critique Wikipedia and will hopefully provide some impetus for improvement.

1. The theory that everyone’s contributions to a topic are equally valuable sounds good, but is clearly nonsense.
2. Wikipedia has no way of recognizing expert knowledge over inexpert knowledge. The members with most authority are the ones who have spent the most time working on Wikipedia – their “knowledge” is often just a combination of Google results and prejudice.
3. Wikipedia gives people’s opinions undeserved authority by virtue of its search engine rankings and authoritative presentation and identity.
4. Too many people (especially students) who use Wikipedia believe the articles will be reliable – and Wikipedia’s stance as an encyclopedia encourages this misguided belief.
5. At the core of Wikipedia is the idea that bad articles will eventually be edited by the community until they become good (i.e. factual and well-written). In fact, they are likely to be edited until all but one member loses interest or gives up trying.
6. “If you don’t like an entry, you can fix it yourself”(1). But I came here for information, not to provide it.
7. “Wikipedia pages have become increasingly complex and Wikipedia doesn’t support a WYSIWYG editor.”(3) This and other technical aspects of Wikipedia effectively prevent many people with valuable knowledge from participating.
8. The lack of any required standard of writing, error-checking and fact-checking means that many Wikipedia entries are poorly-written and contain factual inconsistencies.(1)(2)(4)
9. Wikipedia articles only ever skim the surface. Which is fine – but they don’t ever indicate what might be below the surface either, leading people to believe that everything is as simple and uncontroversial as Wikipedia says it is. (2)
10. Wikipedia entries are meant to be “notable” – but only Wikipedia’s (self-appointed) editors have to think so. Is Stroyent really important?

The Abuse and Harassment of New Editors

In order to maintain control and power over their own pathetic echo chambers the trollish editors and administrators will accuse you of wrong doing where there was none and if you complain of file a dispute the will claim that you insulted them when they were the ones who insulted you.

Wikipedia has lost 1/2 of its administrators and editor because they god sick of the demagoguery, censorship and the agenda trolling of the editors and administrators who are still there.

Wikipedia is lawless. It is pure anarchy and the anarchist there are particularly virulent rule breakers.

Anyone can be an editor there but if say something one of the agenda trolls dislikes they will remove your edit, accuse you of something called disruptive editing with no explanation given, inappropriate discussion again with no explanation. Basically, they fuck with you and lie to you and about you. The will even accuse you of "vandalizing" a page simply because your facts conflict with their narrative and agenda.

If your go to YOUR talk page and discuss the subject of the article for review by another less biased editor they will lie and say that you are using the talk page as a "forum". The talk page is a forum.

They will make up rules. One of their favorites is "Cross-Wiki Abuse" There is no such thing as cross-Wiki abuse. It's gibberish made up by abusive rule breaking power hungry loser administrators must of whom now are nasty millennials.

Wikipdia Administrators Suck. Software Engineer Geoffrey Liu Explains Why <-------CLICK

Anonymity assures that there is accountability. Established gangs of administrators collude under their cloak of anonymity so that can defame you, falsely accuse you, and harass you with impunity.



According to Wikipedia everyone is an editor and this repeating. What this means is anyone can change and article. This invites what the call vandalism only the real vandalism of inserting links that look legit but go to porn sites, somebody just pasting in "Fuck you" 1000 times of starting their own articles bashing the power hungry loser administrators at Wikipedia and even if they ban your IP a vandal could go to an internet cafe or use a proxy server of VPN to continues to vandalize in order to get a little do it yourself justice on a corrupt administrator.

DISCLAIMER: I am not advising anyone to vandalize Wikipedia pages. In spite of the fact that the appeals process is tantamount to a kangaroo court and the administrators are corrupt assholes who are held to no standard of accountability I would advise you that you don't vandalize pages on Wikipedia. That said, I am not trying to inflict my morals or judgment onto you so do what you think is right.  

Vandalizing is another BS open ended term that Wikepedia uses to justify their fucking with new editor. It's kinda like being falsely arrested for disorderly conduct. It's mostly made up bullshit. The links below may be helpful in your understanding of the "wicked Wiki game.

A Crash Course in Wikipedia Vandalism | Mental Floss

Back up. What is wiki vandalism in the first place?

Wikipedia defines it as any "addition, removal, or change of content made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia," which can come in variety of flavors, such as...

Blanking: Removing all or significant parts of a page's content without any reason, or replacing entire pages with nonsense.
Page creation: Creating new pages with the intent of malicious behavior, like blatant advertising pages, personal attack pages and hoaxes.
Page lengthening: Adding large amounts of bad-faith content in order to make the page's load time abnormally long or even make it impossible to load without browser crashing.
Spam: Adding external links to non-notable or irrelevant sites or sites that have some relationship to the subject matter, but advertise or promote in the user's interest.
Silly vandalism: Adding profanity, graffiti, random characters or other nonsense to entries or creating nonsensical and non-encyclopedic pages.
Image vandalism: Uploading shock images, inappropriately placing explicit images on pages, or using images in other disruptive ways.

   

My Country Tis Of Thee Lyrics

Not only is Trump mentally ill, he is sickly as well. With any luck he will drop dead while tweeting some bullshit. Real Americans will celebrate like they did when Obama had bin Laden killed. A lot of democracy loving people throughout the world would like it if Trump were assassinated. That is wrong thinking. Trump need to die of natural causes and we need him around for another year or so to continue fucking things up so that when he dies people of every political will be damn happy.

To be added to My Country Tis of Thee upon Trump's demise.

Tyrants rot in their graves

Gone are their rants and raves

Reason prevails

Gone are the Alt Right lies

Dead are the Russian spies

Truth will not be denied 

Trump rots in Hell

Democracy will always have its enemies and we must remain vigilant in protecting it. Trump is a symptom of a virus that is attacking democracy and we must kill that virus.

I didn't want to go into Iraq.” (He was for an invasion before he was against it.)  JAN. 21 “A reporter for Time magazine — and I have been on their cover 14 or 15 times. I think we have the all-time record in the history of Time magazine.” (Trump was on the cover 11 times and Nixon appeared 55 times.)  JAN. 23 “Between 3 million and 5 million illegal votes caused me to lose the popular vote.” (There's no evidence of illegal voting.)  JAN. 25 “Now, the audience was the biggest ever. But this crowd was massive. Look how far back it goes. This crowd was massive.” (Official aerial photos show Obama's 2009 inauguration was much more heavily attended.)  JAN. 25 “Take a look at the Pew reports (which show voter fraud.)” (The report never mentioned voter fraud.)  JAN. 25 “You had millions of people that now aren't insured anymore.” (The real number is less than 1 million, according to the Urban Institute.)  JAN. 25 “So, look, when President Obama was there two weeks ago making a speech, very nice speech. Two people were shot and killed during his speech. You can't have that.” (There were no gun homicide victims in Chicago that day.)  JAN. 26 “We've taken in tens of thousands of people. We know nothing about them. They can say they vet them. They didn't vet them. They have no papers. How can you vet somebody when you don't know anything about them and you have no papers? How do you vet them? You can't.”(Vetting lasts up to two years.)  JAN. 26 “I cut off hundreds of millions of dollars off one particular plane, hundreds of millions of dollars in a short period of time. It wasn't like I spent, like, weeks, hours, less than hours, and many, many hundreds of millions of dollars. And the plane's going to be better.” (Most of the cuts were already planned.)  JAN. 28 “The coverage about me in the @nytimes and the @washingtonpost has been so false and angry that the Times actually apologized to its dwindling subscribers and readers.” (It never apologized.)  JAN. 29 “The Cuban-Americans, I got 84 percent of that vote.” (There is no support for this.)  JAN. 30 “Only 109 people out of 325,000 were detained and held for questioning. Big problems at airports were caused by Delta computer outage.” (At least 746 people were detained and processed, and the Delta outage happened two days later.)  FEB. 3 “Professional anarchists, thugs and paid protesters are proving the point of the millions of people who voted to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” (There is no evidence of paid protesters.)  FEB. 4 “After being forced to apologize for its bad and inaccurate coverage of me after winning the election, the FAKE NEWS @nytimes is still lost!” (It never apologized.)  FEB. 5 “We had 109 people out of hundreds of thousands of travelers and all we did was vet those people very, very carefully.” (About 60,000 people were affected.)  FEB. 6 “I have already saved more than $700 million when I got involved in the negotiation on the F-35.” (Much of the price drop was projected before Trump took office.)  FEB. 6 “It's gotten to a point where it is not even being reported.

Now they are worse!” (It didn't apologize.)  FEB. 6 “And the previous administration allowed it to happen because we shouldn't have been in Iraq, but we shouldn't have gotten out the way we got out. It created a vacuum, ISIS was formed.” (The group’s origins date to 2004.)  FEB. 7 “And yet the murder rate in our country is the highest it’s been in 47 years, right? Did you know that? Forty-seven years.” (It was higher in the 1980s and '90s.)  FEB. 7 “I saved more than $600 million.

Blumenthal, never asked him about his long-term lie about his brave ‘service’ in Vietnam. FAKE NEWS!” (It was part of Cuomo's first question.)  FEB. 9 “Sen.

Very dishonest!” (The media did cover it.)  FEB. 16 “We got 306 because people came out and voted like they've never seen before so that's the way it goes. I guess it was the biggest Electoral College win since Ronald Reagan.” (George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama all won bigger margins in the Electoral College.)  FEB. 16 “That’s the other thing that was wrong with the travel ban. You had Delta with a massive problem with their computer system at the airports.” (Delta's problems happened two days later.)  FEB. 16 “Walmart announced it will create 10,000 jobs in the United States just this year because of our various plans and initiatives.”(The jobs are a result of its investment plans announced in October 2016.)  FEB. 16 “When WikiLeaks, which I had nothing to do with, comes out and happens to give, they’re not giving classified information.” (Not always.

This is McCarthyism!” (There's no evidence of a wiretap.)  MARCH 4 “How low has President Obama gone to tap my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!” (There's no evidence of a wiretap.)  MARCH 7 “122 vicious prisoners, released by the Obama Administration from Gitmo, have returned to the battlefield. Just another terrible decision!” (113 of them were released by President George W. Bush.)  MARCH 13 “I saved a lot of money on those jets, didn't I? Did I do a good job? More than $725 million on them.” (Much of the cost cuts were planned before Trump.)  MARCH 13 “First of all, it covers very few people.” (About 20 million people gained insurance under Obamacare.)  MARCH 15 “On the airplanes, I saved $725 million. Probably took me a half an hour if you added up all of the times.” (Much of the cost cuts were planned before Trump.)  MARCH 17 “I was in Tennessee — I was just telling the folks — and half of the state has no insurance company, and the other half is going to lose the insurance company.” (There's at least one insurer in every Tennessee county.)  MARCH 20 “With just one negotiation on one set of airplanes, I saved the taxpayers of our country over $700 million.” (Much of the cost cuts were planned before Trump.)  MARCH 21 “To save taxpayer dollars, I’ve already begun negotiating better contracts for the federal government — saving over $700 million on just one set of airplanes of which there are many sets.” (Much of the cost cuts were planned before Trump.)  MARCH 22 “I make the statement, everyone goes crazy.

Guess what, it is turning out to be true.” (There is still no evidence.)  APRIL 5 “You have many states coming up where they’re going to have no insurance company. O.K.? It’s already happened in Tennessee. It’s happening in Kentucky. Tennessee only has half coverage. Half the state is gone. They left.” (Every marketplace region in Tennessee had at least one insurer.)  APRIL 6 “If you look at the kind of cost-cutting we’ve been able to achieve with the military and at the same time ordering vast amounts of equipment — saved hundreds of millions of dollars on airplanes, and really billions, because if you take that out over a period of years it’s many billions of dollars — I think we’ve had a tremendous success.” (Much of the price cuts were already projected.)  APRIL 11 “I like Steve, but you have to remember he was not involved in my campaign until very late.

Then they took it out of there fast when they realized.” (There were separate headlines for print and web, but neither were altered.)  APRIL 12 “The secretary general and I had a productive discussion about what more NATO can do in the fight against terrorism.
