Wikipedia is technology.

Wikipedia is a shadow of itself.
It used to insist that all articles be written in a neutral tone. But its editors have decided that's not necessary when it comes to shit that violates what they've decided is "normal science", among many things (really, anything that fits into their secular leftist worldviews)

(Just to be clear, I'm not saying I necessarily think CST is valid... but that is one of the least neutral "encyclopedia" entries I've ever read and, when I reached out to Wikipedia about it once, they just ho-hummed me... never seeing another dime from me again.)

Still no alternatives. Maybe (You) can start one?

I don't disagree in theory but an objective neutral-tone encyclopedia article isn't the place for that.

Reminder that Wikipedia is loaded and uses the annual 9 figures worth of donations to pay the founder even more than prior, with basically everything else being put into treasury bonds.

*supposedly neutral-tone, I mean

It is still free (as in free beer) and only asks (You) for a donation once in a while. You have no moral right to criticize it.

>CST is a pseudoscience and its practice has been characterized as quackery.[1][2] It is based on fundamental misconceptions about the anatomy and physiology of the human skull and is promoted as a cure-all for a variety of health conditions.
Is this the part that makes you mad ? It is what makes the article neutral. Not stating this would pass the pseudoscience as a real science and would therefore be a lack of neutrality.

Unless you can check every fact, this is a recipe for disaster.

Why would I fact check anything when low IQ normies reading my shit don't even know what is reality and what isn't

>>108622107
Right wingers are so fixated on how an actually well functioning non-profit works because it's an institution promoting reason and knowledge, qualities antithethical to their misdirected peasant rage and profusely low iq

does this make you mad?
the recurring monthly donations will continue. i might give more if anything

you should vandalize it more often

This. They need to be ethered on the regular.

Wikipedia is a static site that costs nothing to host compared to what they receive in donations. All the money you give them goes to random leftist activists to do jack shit and harass people

I didn't know that. I'll donate 4x as much from now on, thanks.

This sounds like glavset agitprop. You're upset because they don't let you post your krokodil fantasies there.

>>108622107
Why would I? I don't need to check the Early Life section anymore.

>>108622107
I will when it stops using fake news as sources. I.e. never.

Daily reminder that Wikipedia doesn't need money. Wikipedia is entirely funded by the people who decide how articles must be redacted, and the only reason they ask for money is to pretend that they're independent.
You, of course, are free to donate any amount of money on top of what they already get from their actual funders, but any money you donate won't "help" them at all and has exactly zero effect on Wikipedia, so enjoy giving your money to another scummy millionaire for no reason. Remember to buy an iPhone and pay for YouTube Premium, Grok Gold, and Copilot+, all other millionaires deserve your money too even if they don't look at you with puppy eyes.

>>108622107
Why would you donate to people and have that on your permanent record?
>>
>>108623530
you know you can check fiscal year reports? sub 1k donations are like 75% or more of total revenue. but given the conspiratorial angle here i suspect this doesnt matter and you'll now call me naive for believing them
