[Coach is Back!]

This is why I have never used or relied on anything from Wikipedia that’s political or in most cases, religion


Former head of the Wikimedia foundation and current CEO of NPR, Katherine Maher:
“The Wikipedians who write these articles aren’t focused on finding the truth. For our most tricky disagreements, seeking the truth isn’t the best place to start. Reverence for the truth might have become a bit of distraction that is preventing us from finding consensus and getting important things done.”

Facts vs. Truths

Facts = Actual truth

Truths = What you want to believe

We had a buddy in college that another buddy edited some stuff into a wiki article about. It was pretty funny and lasted almost a year before it was found out.

WIKIPEDIA BLOWS $50M ON WOKENESS

Turns out nearly 30% of Wikipedia’s budget last year went to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

That’s $50 million for DEI instead of, you know, improving the actual site.

Critics are calling it “Wokepedia,” accusing the platform of prioritizing ideology over function.

Meanwhile, the internet’s collective eye-roll is almost audible.

Sure, inclusion is nice, but maybe they could use some of that money to ensure they're a reliable source of information first? Just a thought.
