Comment on Hehe.... I didn't realize my shitposting on the internet would ever contribute to anything
iamtanmay@wolfballs.com 2 years agoNo. Wiki doesn't work like that. A group of editors has 100% power. They can ban normal people for saying stuff they don't like. Basically Reddit.
On the article's Talk page, I was showing proof against the fucker who made the edits - Financial Times, USA Today articles defining the US Recession. I wanted to expose him as a Democrat propagandist. He - Soibangla, was also behind Hunter Biden's page, edited to say "Trump conspiracies" against him are "debunked".
His "new definition" was that a private company - NBER, is the only one who can decide whether US is in a recession ! While we were arguing, CNBC and Bloomberg published articles backing his definition, TODAY ! What are the odds ? Almost as if he and MM writers were paid to coordinate the response.
Our argument got attention. Other Editors, some unbiased, joined in and fixed the article to the correct definition

Hat's off to you sir. Way to get after it! The amount of pushback you're getting should tell you something about how truthful and influential your argument is.
