Every time I say something positive about Poland, I get hit by something awful in return

It looks like only a portion of the article is available on Prolewiki. Is the page still being edited or is the partial transcription on purpose? Shouldn't be a problem since the source is open access, but I'm curious since it cuts off in the middle of the introduction.

big oof

Yeah I just looked and you're right.

But to be fair here all of what you mention is obfuscated away behind another discussion page and their own "policy" which no normal person would ever know or even care about.

They could make it far more transparent to the visitor and most of these things could be included in that header.

Am I reading the talk page and attributed user accounts that commented wrong? Doesn't the name of the user who left the comment follow the comment immediately?

It looks like TheFriendlyFas2 and Yfff argued that being part of the division did not imply he was a white supremacist and it was Death Editor 2 that was arguing the opposite.

By and large Wikipedia is managed by autocratic administrators who simple got here in the early days. In 2019 they discovered for example that they had named a random Texas kid as admin of the Scots instance who just pretended to speak the language in the most over-the-top ironic way possible. He defaced hundreds of pages and got named as the admin when he was like 12.

90% of their editors are men and most are white, so it's like maybe 75-80% of their editors are white men yknow. There's actually very few pages on notable women because they keep being deleted and women keep being chased away from the platform. Essentially if someone doesn't like you writing on Wikipedia they'll get their admin friend to ban your IP.

If you make an edit you'll have it reverted in a few minutes by hawks who watch pages all day long and claim these pages as theirs.

The funniest example (funniest because it's so sad you just laugh) was some guy who named his account after his Belgian Army grandpa arguing that the genocide in the Belgian Congo was not a genocide. I couldn't even make this up.

We cover most of it here: https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Wikipedia and even then it's far from being exhaustive.

There's a few people in this thread who edit wikipedia and managed to get some of their edits through but honestly even they explain you have to jump through hoops and understand how Wikipedia works to get anything done, like actually participate in the community before you even make any edits. The idea that wikipedia can be edited by anyone or is edited by people "like you or me" is a complete lie upheld by Jimmy Wales who wants to make it seem as though his weird Ayn Rand libertarian ideas actually work in the real world.

Wikipedia is notorious for cracking down on antinazism/prosocialism. For example, since the UKR war there have been many attempts to put truth in Wikipedia that is quickly labeled RUS propaganda and deleted.

The page, as it stands, violates this policy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#People_notable_for_only_one_event

The discussion seems to be focused on rewriting the page to be about the event, rather than the person

He is only notable for one event, which only just happened

What about the events in WW2?

So there's a separate article about the event and he should just be mentioned there? It doesn't merit two separate articles?

Cool, where's the article about the Canadian parliament honoring him?
