Ok, but I wasn’t the one implying Wikipedia editors as a group are biased.
Yes, because the “easily-notable bias” is just a result of discussions done at different times to different evidence, and claiming bias is an overgeneralization.
This page in a nutshell: Any material added to Wikipedia must have been published previously by a reliable source. Editors may not add content solely because they believe it is true, nor delete content they believe to be untrue, unless they have verified beforehand with a reliable source.
Verifiability is as important as truth.
But reliable sources are biased!
From WP:BIASED (Wikipedia:Reliable sources#Biased or opinionated sources).
Wikipedia articles are required to present a neutral point of view. However, reliable sources are not required to be neutral, unbiased, or objective. Sometimes non-neutral sources are the best possible sources for supporting information about the different viewpoints held on a subject.
(Bolding mine)
But reliable sources are chosen by biased contributors!
OP attached to their comic repost RSP columns.
GIMP wants to release 3.2.6 and they’re looking for stuff they need to do to improve from 3.2.5
I trust Wikipedia because I edit on it, and I have no will to continue this conversation.
