As a massive Wikipedia fan and a longtime editor, the comments in this post make me very happy. You’re my people, Lemmy!
I only ever knew the cartoonist for Dilbert. What did he do that’s got folks hating on him? Were there some messed up comics that he published?
He’s been on the clearly wrong side of bad takes numerous times at this point.
2006: “were the number of Jews killed in the Holocaust exaggerated?”
2010s: racist shit about black people
2019 on: anti-masking drivel
2020: stop the steal
2023: livestream, a poll says 25% of black/brown folks feel a bit weird about if someone were to say “it’s ok to be white”, Scott says “best advice I can give to white ppl, get the hell away from black people, there’s no fixing this.”
Almost every newspaper was already close to breaking, they all basically drop him and syndication cancelled.
Me: Healthy, alive, & pointing and laughing at his dead, dumb ass.
don’t vandalize wikipedia :( editors work very hard for no pay
I can confirm as a longtime editor that:
-
I find this shit funny as hell in the short term, but
-
It does make our work harder.

If you really need to take a screenshot for the meme, please at least just use the VisualEditor, which is a what-you-see-is-what-you-get (WYSIWYG) editor that will allow for a near-identical screenshot without actually publishing. If it’s not perfectly identical, you can go to the source editor and click ‘Preview’, which will actually render an identical page without publishing.

We really do take neutrality seriously – not primarily for our image but because, empirically, not doing that destroys the quality of the project.
Alternatively you can also right click, press Inspect, and then edit the HTML, which will look perfect and also not actually change anything.
Inspect will be fine for basic text edits, but it’ll get annoying compared to the VE or source editor if you’re adding a lot of text or trying to do something semi-elaborate.
On the other hand, Inspect will work where the editor won’t if the article is protected and you lack access.
right click? what is this the stone age
f12the right click method goes directly into the selected elements
Work a little for a change.
I always favored
ctrl-shift-i.
I just want to say, thank you for your efforts!

Or just press F12 and edit stuff right there.

And it only further emboldens the idiots who think that Wikipedia is biased (largely against conservatives).
Wikipedia is biased against conservatives. Wikipedia requires citations.
Reality has a well-known liberal bias

It might also be an HTML edit or something
yeah i hope
Not vandalism if it’s a verified fact
it’s not a verified fact if it doesn’t have a citation
I have never wished for a man’s death, but I have read certain obituaries with great pleasure.
Ah, who am I kidding? I’ve wished for a lot of deaths. They’ll all come true, eventually.
is it vandalism when it is true?
Only losers vandalize public good
That said: fuck you, Scott. rot in piss, bigot.
Vandalizing Wikipedia is for the weak
